The beginning of new legacy arrangements which shut down some Troubles-era inquests represents a “day of shame”, Sinn Féin MP John Fincane has said.

Mr Finucane addressed a protest outside the headquarters of the Northern Ireland Office in Belfast city centre, where he vowed that the families of Troubles victims would never give up the search for truth and justice.
