DUP and SF continue blame game over North impasse

The Democratic Unionist Party and Sinn Féin have continued to blame each other for the failure to reach a breakthrough in talks aimed at restoring devolved government in the North.

The talks at Leeds Castle in Britain ended without agreement after the DUP refused to budge on its demand for a re-negotiation of the Good Friday Agreement, despite the IRA's apparent willingness to decommission and disband.
