RHI scandal - rift between DUP and Sinn Fein deepens
It's been another dramatic week around the Renewable Heating Incentive crisis as rift between DUP and Sinn Fein deepens.
It's been another dramatic week around the Renewable Heating Incentive crisis. The DUP's plan to reduce the projected 拢490 million cost of the scheme to "zero" has been dismissed by Sinn Fein after clear the air talks between economy minister Simon Hamilton and finance minister Mairtin O Muilleoir. He called it a "sticking plaster" and issued the starkest warning yet that Stormont will fall if First Minister Arlene Foster does not stand aside. Vinny talks to 成人快手 political correspondent Enda McClafferty, Professor of Politics at the University of Liverpool, Jon Tonge, co-author of an award winning book on the DUP and former MLA Seamus Close.
Also on the programme, why was there such an outpouring of grief over celebrity deaths in 2016? For many people 2016 stood out as a year when many much loved celebrities passed away. Musicians like David Bowie, Leonard Cohen, George Michael and Prince sadly died, as well as other famous faces like Ronnie Corbett, Muhammed Ali, Terry Wogan and many more. But is the outpouring of grief over the many well-known stars when they have died somewhat misplaced? Or perhaps even though we don't know them personally, and whether or not they were seen as good role models, they have been a part of our lives and that grief from fans can be understood?
Plus, the 成人快手 are under fire after broadcasting a comedy sketch which pokes fun at the brides of ISIS fighters. The Real Housewives of Isis skit shows Jihadi brides taking selfies and showing off suicide bomb vests. One woman wearing a hijab says: "It's only three days until the beheading, and I've got no idea what I'm gonna wear." The sketch, based on the popular Real Housewives of... series, which has included New York, Orange County and Beverly Hills, is part of the new 成人快手2 comedy series Rev
