“This is a quiet village in which everyone knows everyone and where these sort of attacks are almost unheard of.

“I am calling on anyone who has any information which might help identify the attackers to bring that forward to the PSNI.”

After committing to the Occupied Territories Bill during the election the Government have now walked away.

This blatant u-turn is a cynical and monumental act of bad faith.

No more excuses, no more prevarication, enact the Occupied Territories Bill now!

The DUP Education Minister oversaw £710,000 in funding for a state-of-the-art pitch at a school already overflowing with facilities, while many other schools struggle.

This decision smacks of cronyism.

Sinn Féin will continue to hold the Minister to account.
