just because i'm about to
2:48
say that i am a hundred percent
2:50
behind arty's decision to broadcast
2:53
the funeral funeral many
2:55
words as leaders of stature
2:57
we've been around unseen through
3:00
the so many presidents the so many pay
3:02
ministers who ministers no and
3:04
on has been asked for the council
3:07
of so many world leaders
3:10
this many world was as and and
3:12
far from our inferiority complex
3:15
when i welcome cringe tries in his
3:17
wife's to donegal i did it with
3:19
my head held high as a proud
3:21
irishman and i applauded
3:23
the queen when she stood in dublin
3:26
and said we regret
3:29
our past basically we did
3:31
so many things said we wouldn't do not
3:33
and so many things that we are uncomfortable
3:35
at the same dot good on earth see
3:38
look the is
3:40
a wild parson of
3:42
note of importance of
3:44
stature and he
3:47
does this contributor of your is
3:49
a former lord mayor does the irish people
3:51
a slice disservice in so far
3:53
as everybody
3:56
who can loot tune in on monday
3:58
because for a bird
3:59
it he of reasons there is
4:02
a great great interest
4:05
in the british royal family and
4:07
don't forget how many irish
4:09
people myself included when
4:11
to britain and made a very good living
4:14
and were treated extremely
4:16
well and highly respected
4:19
and my mother and my grandmother
4:21
as it was a magazine or at paper that could
4:23
be sent from the uk in those days
4:25
with story out stories of that then
4:28
princess elizabeth or princess
4:30
margaret rose they want to them
4:32
because it was a bit of like
4:34
relief and also there is a
4:36
respect for the queen in our country
4:38
and rightly so because
4:40
to be fair to her she did
4:43
a courageous thing and coming to our land
4:45
c c really accepted
4:48
that it was one thing she had
4:50
to do before the end of her
4:52
reign before her death in order
4:55
to put in her own kind of way
4:57
things right and i respect that
4:59
says it is go back to nice ring
5:01
on thus need as as know suggests
5:03
you can have disrespecting the irish people
5:05
are plenty of the everyone whose hand he grew his
5:07
words will will tune in to watch this i like
5:10
i said well maybe maybe in
5:12
donegal only don't know was there certainly
5:14
and in my part of doberman and people
5:16
i would know wouldn't have on the interest
5:18
in watching the a royal funeral
5:21
was are insane das are you absolutely
5:23
agree with node and a certain things
5:25
he said are you are ya such a are actually
5:28
objected to worth coming over to
5:30
ireland and twenty eleven and then
5:32
when she stood in the garden of remembrance and
5:34
laid a wreath and belder said for
5:37
the men and women who fought for i was
5:39
freedom starts with starts significant moment
5:42
as was as moment in dublin castle
5:44
when she said or cooper for killer whales what
5:47
i'm saying das to position she holds
5:49
are held was colonel in chief of
5:51
the british regiments head of the armed forces
5:54
and the warmth that should make the hair
5:56
on the back of i'm really thinking
5:58
irish man this woman stamps
6:01
didn't have to share some of the back of their neck
6:03
is she was she was queen of great
6:06
britain and northern ireland part
6:08
of my country and that's where i have
6:10
an issue that's what the position stand
6:12
for the non elected position played away
6:14
and remember to people in we're citizens
6:17
that in in britain birth their subjects
6:20
so a new noise items for
6:22
the life of me see why or t are spending
6:24
our money at least they're not taking a season
6:26
to b b c so we have to listen to their propaganda
6:29
was
6:30
sending people over at great expense
6:33
i i i really question is striking
6:35
to do
6:36
no can people not just watches on the bbc
6:39
everyone has it here has access to us do
6:41
what he really need to show us
6:43
well i'm not going to is kind
6:45
of and friend to another battle royal
6:47
with your your contributor the facts
6:50
as a matter are and even in that gentleman's
6:53
an area and neighborhood
6:55
trust me people will watch
6:58
it in their millions rt will
7:00
provide the viewership later why
7:03
would we watch it on bbc? we
7:05
are proud to have our own national
7:07
station full of confidence no
7:10
inferiority complex twice
7:12
happy to respect
7:14
our biggest trading partner let's
7:17
not forget that i'm just typing
7:19
colonel-in-chief, etc etc the
7:22
talkin has start someplace where the
7:24
communication has to be kept short
7:27
of correct we have to
7:29
keep short of respecting one
7:31
another's position and moving
7:33
toward at that
7:36
they're are biggest trading partner is an individual nation
7:38
as a trading block, the eu was a a
7:40
trading partner i mean adversity of founder, lion died
7:42
would we show her funeral? the northeast had a that
7:45
they tell you something i respect
7:47
comment i have no argument with that comment
7:50
i still say great
7:52
britain, in hard
7:54
times and in difficult times
7:56
and to this day worse
7:58
still what i can it or as
8:01
a block as an accessible a
8:04
country for our trade
8:06
for our industry what are people
8:08
to get employment and for us
8:10
again to make a huge contribution
8:13
to britain which the queen and
8:15
prince charles or no king charles has
8:17
often acknowledged we should be
8:19
trying to probably did that to you know i
8:22
need a a someone texted in
8:24
or earlier and and then made the point that actually this is a
8:26
very mature decision by aren't he he
8:28
that if you review is one of a united
8:31
ireland and you've got to cater for a million people
8:33
who have a british identity then this is
8:36
exactly the type of thing the type of forward
8:38
looking decision broadcasters national
8:40
broadcasters and publicly funded broadcasters
8:42
like aren't he should be making
8:44
you see the point out publicly funded
8:46
so it should reflect the public
8:48
no no the opinion that millions
8:50
will tune in and good luck to them as they want
8:53
to tune in my opinion is that millions
8:55
wouldn't want to nam so the
8:57
forty is to reflect public opinion
9:00
you would think they shouldn't be showing
9:02
the skill know and as i said it's
9:04
on every channel of the things others i'm
9:06
sure you can get on your phone on some stream
9:08
of from wherever it's it's the to
9:11
seems to me wanna waste of money would
9:13
it really is it's just
9:15
it great the tank
9:17
thus you , we're sending a team
9:19
over there to the show it's it's
9:21
it's the shelters teleplay the funeral
9:24
of somebody who was a fantastic
9:26
i'm i'm i'm not disputing this would know that of
9:28
she was an amazing woman i
9:30
mean like my mom is eighty seven
9:33
and i just think of what she's done to
9:35
analyse and what the queen herself to go through
9:37
with her family difficulties and yes
9:39
what a stabilizing influence she was
9:41
in in the country the same time
9:44
it's still the queen of great
9:46
britain and northern ireland and and
9:48
of course we have to be mature under this
9:51
million people in the north to identify with
9:53
okay let's , to them
9:55
that's an obsessed happening most am
9:57
and us know said a boss battle royal
9:59

10:02
him because i don't think we're having a battle
10:04
royal ballet can go to jail will
10:06

10:19
percent agree with knows we are
10:21
their closest neighbor uk or need to get

10:28
