I am a great fan of the Radio 4 series, The Long View, and today's programme on the Union will be an interesting one.
It will be broadcast at 9 am.
"Jonathan Freedland and a team of historians and BBC correspondents take The Long View of the Union of the United Kingdom and Northern Ireland.
The peoples of this island and their relationship with each other is hotly discussed and contested.
Its relationship – constitutionally, economically and culturally - is up for debate, especially as issues of the Union after Brexit and the pandemic come to the fore.
In this special edition of The Long View Jonathan Freedland and a team of historians and BBC correspondents look back at three separate moments in the history of the birth of the Union where its future - and its terms of engagement - were under similar scrutiny".*.
