Can power-sharing be saved with less than three weeks to find a deal?

BBC Radio Ulster - The Nolan Show, Can power-sharing be saved with less than three weeks to find a deal?

Talks, talks and more talks. All that will have a huge bearing on life in Northern Ireland.

Two sets of talks that will have a huge bearing on life here in Northern Ireland. It's crunch time today as Arlene Foster meets with Theresa May to hammer out terms for a Conservative-DUP pact to allow the Conservatives to form a minority government. Meanwhile, talks to restore power-sharing resumed yesterday with less than three weeks to save Stormont. Sinn Fein president Gerry Adams warned yesterday that there would be no deal between the Conservatives and the DUP that will be good for people in Northern Ireland. Vinny got the views of Alliance Party leader Naomi Long, TUV leader Jim Allister, UUP's Steve Aiken and SDLP's Dolores Kelly.

Also on the programme - "There's an old rule, never ever put the country in the hands of the Ulstermen. In an attempt to try and shore up an 'untenable position' apparently in order to seek stability, she's going to do a deal with - the DUP. It's unbelievable". The words of Paddy Ashdown. Vinny spoke to Lord Paddy Ashdown this morning.

And, Royal College of Nurses warning as EU nurses registering in UK drops 96 per cent since Brexit - Vinny spoke to Garrett Martin from the Royal College of Nurses.
