Row breaks out over Trimble's 'foolish' comments

A row has broken out between UUP leader David Trimble and the party president Martin Smyth over Mr Trimble’s comments following last week’s act of IRA decommissioning.

Mr Smyth accused Mr Trimble of stoking internal party divisions by claiming that the second act of decommissioning had made anti-agreement unionists look "rather foolish".
