Murder in Waringstown, a bomb in Fermanagh and shots fired at republican funeral in west Belfast. PSNI plea for political progress.
A man murdered in Waringstown. A bomb aimed at luring police and army to their deaths in Fermanagh. And videos circulate on social media showing shots being fired at a republican funeral in west Belfast. The Deputy Chief Constable Stephen Martin had a message for our politicians yesterday. Stephen got reaction from UUP MLA Doug Beattie, SDLP MLA Dolores Kelly, News Letter deputy editor Ben Lowry and Allison Morris from the Irish News.
Also on the programme, "Yellowhammer", as we heard yesterday, the secret Whitehall dossier leaked to the Sunday Times suggests the government and the UK are 'hugely unprepared for a No Deal Brexit'. Among other things it warns of medicines shortages, but the PM's policy advisor and cabinet minister in charge of preparing for a No Deal Brexit - Michael Gove - says the report "is a worst case scenario" and very significant steps have been taken to accelerate Brexit planning. The DUP have also described the dossier as 'outdated'. We talk on this programme about protecting the 'vulnerable'. So just how concerned should we be when we hear of possible shortages in medicine? Stephen spoke to Dr Tom Black, chair of the British Medical Association (BMA) Northern Ireland, Simon Wigglesworth - Deputy Chief Executive of Epilepsy Action - and Terry Maguire is a pharmacist from the Ulster Chemist Association.
All that and more on the biggest show in the country...
