The DUP has been using a veto power to block Stormont’s devolved institutions for almost two years.

The return will see Michelle O’Neill become the region’s first ever nationalist first minister.

Some 16 trade unions with joint membership totalling around 170,000 are taking part in industrial action today.

Workers are demanding that pay awards made to counterparts elsewhere in the UK are introduced in Northern Ireland.
Speaking at Belfast City Hall this afternoon, Nipsa general secretary Carmel Gates said strike action will grow if demands aren't met.
