Unionists fiercely resist calls for a border poll for on a United Ireland, but that was not always the case. David Trimble campaigned for a poll in 2002 – secret files reveal he was dismissed. Newly released Dublin files reveal former taoiseach John Bruton was suspicious not only of Sinn Féin and the SDLP, but even his own Department of Foreign Affairs. Other files reveal a young John F Kennedy was happy enough with partition of Ireland and how Roger Casement was a source of controversy long after his execution.

Following the passing of former Taoiseach John Bruton, Anton was joined by Pat Rabbitte to share his memories of the former Fine Gael leader.
Nuacht Mhall. Príomhscéalta na seachtaine, léite go mall. * Inniu an deichiú lá de mhí Feabhra. Is mise Barra Mac Giolla Aoláin. Tá an t-iarThaoiseach agus iarcheannaire Fhine Gael John Bruton tar éis bás a fháil i ndiaidh tinneas fada. Thug a chlann le fíos i ráiteas gur bhásaigh sé go suaimhneach in Ospidéal Príobháideach an Mater i mBaile Átha Cliath. Toghadh chun na Dála den chead uair é in 1969 agus bhí sé ina Thaoiseach idir 1994 agus 1997 mar cheannaire ar chomhrialtas ilpháirtí, ar a tugadh 'Comhrialtas Bogha Ceatha', in éineacht le Páirtí an Lucht Oibre agus Daonlathas Clé. Bhí sé lárnach i mbunú an phróisis síochána sa Tuaisceart. I ráiteas dúirt an Taoiseach reatha Leo Varadkar gur méala mór é bás John Bruton dó féin go pearsanta. Tá comhbhrón déanta ag daoine éagsúla ar fud na tíre agus thar lear.D'fhógair Pálás Buckingham go bhfuil ailse ar Rí Séarlas. Thug said le fios cúpla seachtain ó shin go raibh fadhb phróstatach ag an Rí ach nach raibh sí tromchúiseach. I ndiaidh scrúdaithe, áfach, fuarthas go bhfuil ailse air, ach níor fógraíodh go fóill cén cineál. Dúirt Príomhaire na Ríochta Aontaithe Rishi Sunak go raibh brón air faoi agus gur “thángthas uirthi go luath”. I ráiteas inné, dúirt Uachtarán na hÉireann Micheál D Ó hUiginn go bhfuil “an-bhrón agus buairt” air faoi dhiagnóis leighis an Rí a chloisteáil. Tá Séarlas chun sos a ghlacadh óna chuid oibre agus cóir leighis á cur air agus tuariscíodh go raibh a mhac Harry fillte ó Mheiriceá chun am a chaitheamh leis.Rinne stoirm mharfach damáiste ollmhór in California agus ar chósta thiar Mheiriceá. Is é seo an dara córas aimsire taobh istigh de sheachtain, a tharla mar gheall ar fhéiniméan ar a dtugtar an “Pineapple Express”. Is abhainn atmaisféarach é an Pineapple Express, frasaíocht a bheirtear tríd an aer ó lár an Aigéin Chiúin. Maraíodh ar a laghad triúr ag crainn ag titim, tuilte agus sciorradh láibe. De bharr na fearthainne ba mheasa a chonacthas riamh sa stát, d'fhógair an gobharnóir staid éigeandála in ocht gcontae. Tá beagnach 40 milliún duine ag maireachtáil le foláireamh tuilte. Thairg Uachtarán na Stát Aontaithe Joe Biden cuidiú ón rialtas feidearálach. * Léirithe ag Conradh na Gaeilge i Londain. Tá an script ar fáil i d'aip phodchraolta. * GLUAIS Comhrialtas Bogha Ceatha - Rainbow Coalition Daonlathas Clé - Democratic Left ailse - cancer cóir leighis - treatment frasaíocht - precipitation foláireamh tuilte - flood warning

John Bruton was a brave, committed man and the former Taoiseach often demonstrated first-class leadership when it was most needed, Father Bruce Bradley said in his sermon. Ba fear cróga, tiomanta é John Bruton agus ba mhinic leis an iarThaoiseach ceannaireacht den chéad scoth a léiriú nuair is mó a bhí gá leis a dúirt an tAthair Bruce Bradley ina sheanmóir.

Pat Leahy and Cormac McQuinn join Hugh Linehan to look back on the week in politics:The latest Irish Times/Ipsos B&A poll shows support for Sinn Féin took a significant dent, down six points – its lowest level in three years. As Pat explains, a lack of clarity around immigration and the misstep that was the ill-judged motion of no confidence in Justice Minister Helen McEntee last December are just two reasons why the party are losing ground to smaller parties and Independents.And data from the poll also threw up some interesting insights into what way voters will vote in both proposals in the upcoming referendums recognising non-marital families and care in the Constitution, and how much they know actually about what they are voting for.Former taoiseach John Bruton passed away this week, the panel discuss the profound consequences of his time leading government, not least the beginning of runaway economic success and the road to the Good Friday Agreement.Plus, they pick their favourite Irish Times articles of the week, on diverse topics: Ukraine war updates, Dublin traffic transformation and Dee Forbes.
