Recipe for division?
In a HARDtalk interview on 18 September, Tim Sebastian spoke to Alex Maskey, Lord Mayor of Belfast.
The number of bombings and shootings in Belfast last year was the highest for 20 years. Warnings have been issued about a drugs war between rival Loyalist paramilitary groups, and for the first time since the Good Friday Agreement, troops have been put back on the streets. This summer Alex Maskey, twice interned without trial in the 1970s for IRA activities, became the first Sinn Fein Lord Mayor of Belfast. His appointment has infuriated Loyalists, so how does he plan to represent the city as a whole? The interview can be watched in full on Thursday 26 September on BBC World at the following times: BBC World (times shown in GMT) 0330, repeated 0830, 1130, 1530, 1830, 2330
