| Quote: | New era dawns on Northern Ireland
Northern Ireland's major Protestant and Catholic parties joined together Tuesday to form a power-sharing government, marking a "new era of politics" and an end to three decades of sectarian conflict in the British province.
Protestant Democratic Unionist Party leader Ian Paisley, 80, was sworn in as the Northern Ireland assembly's first minister and key player Martin McGuinness, 56, of Sinn Fein will take on the role of deputy first minister. |

Yes! Good news, to be sure!
A girl from another speech and debate team presented a good speech that I believe drove her to state and drove her to the second day of Nat Quals on the Irish-British conflict there. It was very well-given and informative, so I'm extra glad this development has come to pass.
