Sir, - I would like to compliment your reporter Gerry Moriarty on his perceptive series of interviews with participants in the Stormont peace talks. As a Southerner who has spent the last year working weekdays in Belfast and who struggles to understand the complexity of the political situation, I found the articles encapsulated the story, and sense of possibility, that is Northern Ireland. - Yours, etc.,
