- Simon Harris, the prime minister of Ireland, has said that the "British-Irish relationship is really strong" and the two countries now have a "real opportunity" to "press reset".
He said: "Politics aside... at the end of the day, we're neighbours, we're friends - in many cases we're family as well.
"And there's an opportunity now - a real opportunity - that we must cease, and the next generation will never forgive us for if we don't, to press reset."

Harris is impressive. It will be interesting to see how well London and Dublin work together into the future.
Good interview. The Taoiseach was very diplomatic in his answers
The last thing he and his party want is a united Ireland
That is why FG got the United Ireland Protocol in 2019, which increased cross border trade 500% in the space of a year..... and of course the €500 billion for the Shared Island Fund as well as the Billion given to the North to get the DUP back to work... Oh Yeah!!! both Leo Varadkar and Simon Coveney said they would see a United Ireland in their life time.
It’s almost like a united Ireland is a terrible idea
@@mrhoppy_9724 A United Ireland already exist in all but name.... and as soon as the uk government calls a border poll, it will be done and dusted. The brits would loss their sh1t if they thought Ireland had beaten them again....
There's that word "RESET" again....🙄
ok tan...
Its a word. Yes. Well done
Let’s have a game of Brexit bingo, a point for any of the following.
Deregulate, punish, not punishing, punishment, water down, pour cold water on, preferential, hugh privileges, lucrative, demanding, 3rd country, reset, Not what voted for, BRINO.
There's that word "that" again.
Yeah exactly. Next they’ll be ‘Building Back Better’…
Did they stop filming before the interviewer started massaging his back?
What do they think our nation is a computer game ?
They think it's theirs, to do whatever they want too.
@@davetdowell that know its theirs lol
Who are they?
@@youtubeboxingcentral2022 It's the ppls actually & these are supposed to work on behalf of the ppl of the country! Not themselves, or there wealthy of friends.
He's using language to convey meaning. I don't think he thinks any country is a computer game. He's using an analogy. It's a normal thing that people do.
Sky News obviously trying to put words into his mouth that Tories are so bad and Kier Starmer is The Angel coming down from heaven to earth to save the UK.
The gist is true. Brexit undermined the gfa. Johnson didnt care. Thank goodness for labour.
Because all are the same inside out globlists.
I’ve noted the vastly different reaction of the ‘unbiased’ MSM to this election result compared to previous ones. Coincidence?
The torys WERE so bad...an utter Shambles of a government!!
Tories are bad though. They’re the most awful government any of us will ever live through. We’ll forget that and glorify them and people will vote for them in 5 years but Boris was an affront to politics and his government were as corrupt as a South American one. Starmer is no angel and will be a flop but let’s not forget the Tories are bad. They are not your friends.
Dear Ireland and UK...getting along with your neighbours is key to a happy life. The majority of immigrants to England have been Irish for decades..so why they don't regard each other as family is a mystery..
This hasn't been true for over 50 years. Irish immigrant and British get on fine. It's other ethnicities that cause more friction.
we already do see each other as family "Magz" the problem is other groups as the commenter above already pointed out
Remove the politicians from the equation. The British and the Irish people are one big happy family. We need to recognise where the true problem lies.

Can anyone tell me why lowering corporation tax to12.5% to save the Irish economy is a good thing, and a Brexit wish to lower our CT to the same level is the crime of the century?
Not a crime, but the govt needs revenue for our public services.
@@stephenhill545 - so why is that good for an EU member but a wicked exploitative attempt by Brexiteers to create a Singapore on the Thames in a race to the bottom, or whatever guff the remoaners were banging on about?
Aligning our corporation tax with Irish levels would be a great way to boost the Anglo-Irish relationship that Simon Harris desires, some chance
BTW - I am English and a big fan of Ireland and the Irish people and would like nothing more than a closer relationship with them
We had an enormously talented people on our doorstep with whom we should never have had an argument, they emigrated to build other countries when we should have joined hands to build our own countries
@@richardenders6606 that’s pathetic ,they are only in the position they are due to brexit.
They don’t have great ideas other ethnic Nationalism .
A lower corporation tax is supposed to promote greater investment in a country, but this never happened. When the corporation tax was 19% investment didnt increase and saw no increase in company movement to UK. Ireland win on convincing international companies is there tax breaks to nearly 0% while being part of the EU. The cant compete as its outside the EU.
Yet again media stirring the pot
Thats all sly ever do! I think is a sign of viewer desperation.
Media as in ...in the middle, between us and the truth.
Why? They’re not stoking division and hate, pretty sensible we reset the shitshow of international relations the cons left us. 🇪🇺
A man is not allowed to.build a modest home in ireland ,due to the local needs descrimination rule ,and this rule is endorsed by this pathetic government, and also by sinn Fein,a pretend opposition party the notion of self-determination on this island is a myth and that unfortunately is what this country have become . Nothing changes for the honest men and women who try to live here
Come again?
@@polreamonn look up local needs
And d irish government housing illegal immigrants in hotels all over d country a disgrace
Why do we have such low quality politicians now
He seems pretty good.
@@keysiblaze because they are all globalist elites puppets…
@@nicks4934 He's literally the exact opposite
Remember that word that has been banded about the past few years "reset" and most laughed it off, not laughing now.
I pressed the reset button on my clock 😱😱😱😱 run for cover! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Harris say that the UK government at 2:29 but almost 2/3 of the voters didn't vote this government, so as a British person this Starmer government doesn't speak me or the vast majority of the British people that voted!!!!
This man has zero mandate. Essentially placed there by WEF like his WEF trained predecessor....
Starmer is like him to wollies to together
In English please?
Good fences make good neighbours.
I’m baffled why people are voting for this.
I can’t get my head around why people are accepting it.
Because they are all NPC's literally
They didn't vote
They vote for the same parties that there great grandfather voted for,even if the policies of that party has changed so radically that it doesn't reflect their world view anymore.
Keir Stalin described as a man of integrity and one who has won a comprehensive victory … Can we get this man committed to the nearest asylum please?
Oh I thought 412 seats was a massive victory.....over 170 majority..seems massive to me
Is that a wef reset ????? Crikey we are DEAD !!!
Yes and Starmer used the reset word in in first speech as PM, yes we're in serious trouble and will ne non reversable
Calm down.

He was voted in Wicklow..
@@roryoneill9444 on the 16th count
Constant resets and no long term strategy. Democratic government has failed us
sinn fein and WEF want this 😡
A minority of England voted for Labour! So sorry i disagree.
@@uniquevideosUk 33% in fact but many stayed home so they are also tacitly responsible for what comes next…
I don't think that's Simon Harris's problem. It might be yours, but it's not his.
When was the last time any UK government was actually backed by a majority? The reality of the FPTP electoral system is hardly Starmer's fault.
The tories wanted their messed up FPTP system so kind of no complaining about it
Well Trump lost to Clinton in the popular vote 2016 by seven million!
WEF reset hellmouth opening wider.
Anyone heard any early rumours about how soon, and how much the pay rises are going to be at the NHS?
Catholics have majority for years it time to come about a full Ireland 🇮🇪 of Ireland to come here in next few years that .wat needed .not getting colisise again
Reset? Didn't Putin and Bush use that word in the past? As an Irishman living in the UK over 30 years, I think our two nations get along just fine without the interventions of the press thanks very much!
The only reset button he is going to press is illegal immigrants in ireland from 30k+ to zero over night by giving them all amnesty. Then start bringing in another 30k every year from 2026 when the new eu immigration pact kicks in.
Border poll now this will force Simon (a united ireland is not a priority)harris and keir(i can't be seen to be giving up northern ireland, but i want to starmer) legally to come to the table otherwise they never will the people have already spoken in how they vote but fffg don't want it they lose majority on the island and no PM can be seen to giving the north up
Under the terms of the Good Friday Agreement of which the British and Irish governments are co guarantors a border poll can only be called when the Secretary of State deems that the criteria for holding such a poll are met.
@michaelogrady1002 yes yes we know but no one seems to know what the criteria is, but the way people have been voting says it all the people want it
Ulster is British 🇬🇧
@@Alec-rj4rk Donegal, Cavan and Monaghan are part of Ulster but are in the Irish Republic. Northern Ireland is not Ulster that's why it's called Northern Ireland rather than Ulster. Once upon a time the British thought that the 26 counties were British, how did that work out?
The fate of Northern Ireland is up to the people of Northern Ireland, same as Scotland, Wales, the Falklands or Gibraltar.
People of Ireland unite and save your beautiful country.We were not asked .🙏🫶🏼💚🧡
Not asked what?
"press reset" yeah we know , get NI back to the rest of Ireland but can Eire afford it ??
Firstly. It’s Ireland not Éire. Also Ireland could easily afford it as they would modernise Northern Ireland’s economy as it has been neglected for decades. All the famous subvention from London is somewhat of a myth.
@@murpho999 1, Ireland (Irish: Éire [ˈeːɾʲə]), also known as the Republic of Ireland.
2, Irish Unity could cost 20 billion a year for 20 years that's according to a new paper from the Institute of International and European Affairs
the 3rd is will both sides want unification? Apparently thats a "yes" if it doesn't cost more to the Irish citizens both North or South.
Me? if they vote to join, then let them but the UK should not foot the bill.
O don't think it will be that easy one thing northern has in ample supply is bitterness on both sides😢
Of course Ireland can afford the 6 counties, Ireland's tax surplus in €10 billion.... the tax revenue from the North is £19 billion in 2022 and the idea that Westminster gave the North £15 billion in 2022 (an increase from £10 billion in 2021), when there was no working devolved Government to spend increase and there was no increase in public sector pay or port infrastructure built.... it is more likely that the Barnett formula is a scam and that the money got pocketed in London.
Terrifying to see this for the moment. The world will see the way this man takes things.
Sly news.
these people will see Lammy coming and have a statue of liberty to sell him
Ireland the greatest recipient of uk misery telling us that they deserve a reset ?
Good interview. Simon Harris has very good communication skills, certainly a lot better than Leo.
The man has a silver tongue. He chooses every word carefully, if he wasn't a TD he could certainly be a diplomat.
Another unelected politician who doesn't speak on behalf of the irish people
Pretty sure he got one of the 5 Wicklow seats in 2020 election, no?
@@seanquinn2476 He was elected in Wicklow, so yes Simon was elected. Maybe check out the term Parliamentary Democracy.
Who, in your opinion, is an elected politician who DOES speak on behalf of the Irish people? (Please note the uppercase 'I' in 'Irish'.)
@@nautilusshell4969 He wasn't elected by the brits..... so the brits are not happy that Leo got the United Ireland Protocol in 2019... and they are losing the $h1t that Ireland's economy is doing so much better than the uk's. That is why they are trolling.
Donegal is more northern than northern Ireland.
ENOCK BURKE IS FREE for now ?
He reminds me of the late and great Dr. Gareth Fitzgearld…
Of course its the Davos over Westminster reset and we all know who gives out the brown envelopes in that respect. Oh crap, just realised I'm on Sly News Channel!
Well said
Pass.
EU vultures circling. Hoping Starmer surrenders.
😊his veiw is migration policy of any country is there own but not his own
Both him and Starmer will be out of there soon. They're both useless and charmless, and neither one of them was selected by the majority, but got where they are, because they were favoured by a system that doesn't work anymore!
Starmers going to be in power for five years.
@@col.hertford9855 be lucky to make 2, this parliament will eat itself
@@col.hertford9855 he will never last that long with only 33% of the vote…
@@adrianryan5654 he, as Prime Minister, gets to decide the date of the next election. His party have 66% of seats in parliament so a no confidence motion would not succeed. There is absolutely no way of removing him, and zero other party looks capable of forming a government in the short to medium term.

Why on gods green earth would a Irish Taoiseach support England at the Euros. We in Ireland support any team that plays England, come on Netherlands 🇳🇱
Yes we know this. 😅

Should have thought about that before agreeing to be the EU’s boot.
@@Optimistic-101No Britain should have thought about that before Brexit.

as someone who is Half Irish, Irelands behaviour towards the UK has been disgusting. Ireland is an anti democractic vassel state and the UK would do best to not help it one little bit
who is a vassal state of?

@@davidrenton Agreed it has been vile stirred up by their media and bureaucrats.
Vassal State.... Scotland voted to remain in the EU but dragged out.... and the North of Ireland's Nationalists parties have the largest party with the most MPs and MLAs. How many PM did the uk have in the last 5 years..... yeah 5 of them with only 2 were actually elected. I forgot to mention that the uk has a Russian spy in the unelected House of Lords...
Ireland owes nothing to the UK but disgust
He must have forgotten about WW2 and how the irish were the enemies of the allies. Yet enjoy the freedoms that others gave their lives for.
Look forward not backwards
Ireland did ask to join the allies and told to rejoin UK or No
