The Stormont talks are to resume with the deadline for a deal due to run out in two days' time.

So with the ink already dry on a deal that will see the DUP support Theresa May's government - what next for how and when that extra one billion pounds in cash for Northern Ireland will be spent?

The 20 year old, who fights out of the same gym as Conor McGregor, continued his MMA unbeaten record after a first round victory at the famous MSG arena in New York on Saturday night.
