NI Assembly election
Fionnuala O'Connor, Stephan Grimason, Caitr铆ona Ruane and Alex Kane are assessing the results on 成人快手 One NI.聽
Fionnuala O'Connor says Arlene Foster has done a double, she has brought her own vote AND the Sinn F茅in vote up.
SDLP leader Colum Eastwood tells 成人快手 Radio Ulster that his party has held its own but admitted it was not enough to stand still.
He said the party was part of the "squeezed middle" in an "polarised political system", and it did not have time to implement its five-year plan for opposition. 聽
NI Assembly election
Our political editor Mark Devenport believes the DUP will be relieved this evening. However, he thinks the UUP leader, Mike Nesbitt, will be under pressure.
Sinn F茅in will be the happiest party today, he says.
DUP MP Sir Jeffrey Donaldson is at the Lagan Valley count, where his party colleague Paul Givan topped the poll.
He told 成人快手 Radio Ulster that his party had "held up well" but taken a bit of a hit in terms of percentage.
He denied that the energy scandal was to blame, saying Sinn F茅in collapsed the institutions to force an election because the party wanted to "reset the political landscape" because it was disappointed with the outcome last year.
He was adamant Arlene Foster would be leading the DUP into the post-election negotiations.
