Sir Tony Blair says the Good Friday agreement remains "one of the if not the only successful peace accord" over the last 25 years, and says it is "always worth reminding ourselves where we were" during the Troubles so "we understand how important it is to keep it." On the Democratic Unionist Party and the Brexit negotiations in the UK, the former Prime Minister says he hopes DUP "think on balance" for stability "that is so crucial for the peace in Northern Ireland to remain."

Recent Survey predicts a grim outcome for the Conservative Party under Rishi Sunak, with Labour projected to secure 403 seats. This contrasts starkly with the Tories' anticipated decline to just 155 seats. The analysis suggests Keir Starmer's Labour could replicate Tony Blair's 1997 success, while Sunak faces a bleaker fate than John Major in 1997.

Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer said he talks to Sir Tony Blair "a lot" to draw on his experience of preparing for power in 1997. Sir Keir told Channel 5’s Jeremy Vine that he spoke to both Sir Tony and Gordon Brown about their experiences of moving from opposition into government. He said it had been "really helpful" to hear from the New Labour figures about how they got ready ahead of the 1997 landslide. Report by Covellm.

More lives were probably lost than saved through the British Army’s operation of its top agent inside the IRA’s internal security unit during the Troubles, a major independent investigation has found. Operation Kenova examined the role of Stakeknife, widely believed to be west Belfast man Freddie Scappaticci, who was embedded in the IRA’s so-called “nutting squad”, responsible for interrogating, torturing and murdering people suspected of passing information to security forces during the conflict.

The police chief who led an inquiry into the activities of British Army double-agent ‘Stakeknife’ during ‘The Troubles’ in Northern Ireland, has described claims that his actions saved countless lives as being ‘hugely exaggerated’. Speaking at the publication of his ‘Operation Kenova’ report, chief constable Jon Boutcher from the Police Service of Northern Ireland insists the spy’s actions ‘resulted in more lives being lost than were saved’.
