The Northern Secretary has said all sides should take responsibility for their part in the 1972 killing of 14 unarmed nationalists on Bloody Sunday. "We all should take responsibility . . . across the board," Dr Mo Mowlam told a breakfast meeting of the Irish-American Partnership in Boston. "I have no difficulty with the concept. I just want to do it in a way that actually works."
There have been hints the British government may apologise for the killings. On January 30th, 1972, British paratroopers shot dead 13 Catholic men - another died several months later - during a civil rights demonstration in Derry.
Dr Mowlam is on a five-day visit to the US seeking support for the peace process.
