Cardinal Brady to meet the UPRG

Oh to be a fly on the wall of that meeting. This is another step to bring peace to Northern Ireland through the creation of trust. This is achieved through education and opening peoples minds.

Chief amongst the issues will of course be decommissioning of weapons and spokesman Frankie Gallagher gave some hints of movement when he said this would be a good year for Northern Ireland.

I hope in their meeting, and possible subsequent meetings, they find time to deal with other issues including how to deal with poverty and how to raise educational standards amongst the loyalist population.

What better way would there be to face the economic crisis that affects all of us regardless of religious or political belief than to work together to tackle poverty, social exclusion, unemployment and education.

Surely such images would convince even the most hard pressed investor to look in our direction. Good Luck!
