No deal at Stormont - and the blame game begins after the big two parties can't agree over the Irish language
No deal at Stormont - and the blame game begins after the big two parties can't agree over the Irish language.
It's the blame game after the DUP and Sinn Fein can't agree a deal over the Irish language. Sinn Fein leader in Northern Ireland Michelle O'Neill warned the issues aren't going to go away. But the DUP's Simon Hamilton pointed the finger at Sinn Fein. So here we are 13 months with no government here and MLAs still on full pay while big issues like hospital waiting lists and schools strapped for cash remain. And we don't even know what deal was actually on the table - this talk of accommodation between the two parties - why won't they tell us what they are walking away from? Is it really worth sacrificing devolution over the Irish language? So what next for Stormont - is powersharing dead in the water and are we heading for another election or direct rule? Alliance leader Naomi Long, SDLP leader Colum Eastwood, TUV leader Jim Allister, UUP MLA Steve Aiken and callers react.
