'Atmosphere very poisonous' in Stormont government

The Deputy First Minister of Northern Ireland Martin McGuiness has quit over the handling of a botched heating scheme.

The veteran Northern Ireland journalist David McKittrick told Carolyn Quinn that McGuiness' resignation means fresh elections are likely.

He said: "The atmosphere is really very poisonous between Sinn Fein and Arlene Foster's Democratic Unionists."
