lpv:spoken text	"Mr President, 20 years ago I was serving a life sentence in jail and the IRA cessation had collapsed. 20 years ago an inclusive negotiation emerged after the British Conservative Government lost the election and a new administration, along with the political parties and support from the EU and the USA, built the foundations of Ireland’s peace process. I stand here, a former political prisoner released under the terms of the Good Friday Agreement and now, 20 years on, our political process is in serious trouble because of Brexit and because an anti-equality axis was formed by the British Government and by the DUP. I call on this Parliament to support the case for the north of Ireland to secure designated special status within the EU. This cannot be left to the British Government to grant. The Westminster election power grab aims to copper-fasten a hard Brexit, copper-fasten partition, copper-fasten a hard border and hollow out the Good Friday Agreement in all of its parts. This Parliament and the EU cannot allow that to happen because the Good Friday Agreement is an international agreement and it was lodged at the United Nations."@en1
