Hundreds of millions of overspend on NI road projects, hospitals and schools. Can it continue?

Hundreds of millions of overspend on NI road projects, hospitals and schools. Can it continue?

Crazy Northern Ireland. Road projects , hospitals, schools , running hundreds of millions overspent. Projects not completed on time. Does it matter to any of the people it is supposed to matter to?

Also on the programme, Secretary of State Julian Smith is expected to convene a health summit involving the main Stormont party leaders later today.
It comes after unprecedented strike action by health care staff calling for pay parity and safer staffing levels.
It's understood the summit forms part of the overall talks process to restore the Stormont institutions.

But while Julian Smith is chairing this health summit some are saying he has some responsibility and role in the current crisis.

Tory austerity is being blamed by some and others say the Secretary of state is using the current crisis as leverage to get our politicians back into Stormont. Is that fair?
