Martin: 'North is sorted' an extremely short-sighted view

Fianna Fáil leader Micheál Martin has launched a scathing attack on the main governing parties in the North, while accusing the Irish government of ignoring serious problems north of the border.

In an address at the annual Wolfe Tone commemoration at Bodenstown, Co Kildare, Mr Martin claimed the Democratic Unionists and Sinn Féin constantly put party interest ahead of the common good at Stormont.
