I agree with Senator Marshall. The presence of the Minister of State, Deputy Griffin, at the Orange march in Belfast was hugely significant. It follows on from the presence of Arlene Foster, the leader of the DUP, at the Ulster final in Clones and the visits of many royal couples to Ireland. There is a new stage in our evolution. I certainly will not take a lecture from anyone from Dublin about my feelings on Northern Ireland. I come from middle Ireland and the party of Garret FitzGerald, which introduced the Anglo-Irish Agreement and which supports the Good Friday Agreement. There are two sides to every story on the island of Ireland and in the UK. We must work much more closely with our neighbours on all sides to ensure we get peace and a better country.

I did not say that to Senator Feighan. I just said to stop the broken record.

The pot is calling the kettle black.

What is happening in the UK is very concerning. Today, the electoral commission has fined the Vote Leave campaign £61,000 and referred it to the police for breaking electoral law. This is as a result of the Brexit referendum. What is happening in the House of Commons is very worrying. The UK has to abide by its joint report commitments, that is, the backstop. Negotiations cannot progress and there can be no transition or withdrawal agreement otherwise. The Good Friday Agreement has to be agreed in all its parts. Our fate is now being decided by people in the United Kingdom who have no interest in either Ireland or the Good Friday Agreement. That is a matter of some concern. We must unite to ensure that our interests are protected. They are not thinking about the United Kingdom but about uniting the Tory Party, which is very damaging. I know it is a UK decision but we must have a second referendum. We are going in a certain direction that is going to be damaging for the island of Ireland, the United Kingdom and the EU. It is up to the British people but a referendum is needed after all the shenanigans that have happened in the past few days.
