This afternoon.
Parliament Buildings, Stormont, Belfast
Sinn Fein’s Martin McGuinness joins the health minister, Michelle O Neill, who will take over from former deputy first minister Martin McGuinness who has retired due to illness.
Ms O Neill paid a warm tribute to Mr McGuinness and said she was “following in the footsteps of a political giant”. She said “no-one can replace Martin” but said she would continue the work he started…
Fight!

Good luck to her.
Now that Martin McGuinness has departed, shouldn’t Gerry Adams do the honourable thing and follow suit?
Why would he start now?
Is she related to P?
Who is P?
My nornie friends tell me she’s brain dead, even for a Shinner.
…you really need to give up those drugs…
Is the appointment of McGuinness and Adams or the party rank and file.
I’ve only heard good about her, best of luck to her they’re big shoes to fill.
Great to see women in positions of leadership Go Mna na hEireann!
