King’s NI visit echoes previous high point in Irish-British relations
The Guardian says Helicopters droned overhead, police officers swamped the streets and grief hung in the air but King Charles’s visit to Northern Ireland did not feel like a rerun of the Troubles. Quite the opposite.
The monarch’s foray across the Irish Sea on Tuesday turned the clock back to a more recent era when reconciliation between unionists and nationalists, and Ireland and Britain, seemed strong, even inevitable.
The sun shone, leaders across the political divide found common ground, and for a few hours it felt like the giddy period a decade ago when the royal family applied balm to wounds left by centuries of conflict, creating hope for a more harmonious future.
