Northern Ireland: Statements.

 

Earlier this year I was in India at a time when Hindus and Muslims were fighting in Gujarat. I was not in the affected area, but that weekend hundreds were killed because of sectarian conflict. It reminds us of how quickly this could happen again in Northern Ireland, and just how short a time it has been since we were in the same situation. The goal is worthwhile. We must encourage people in the North to find the solution, whatever it may be.
