"All is changed here and changing" Sinn Féin leader Mary Lou McDonald told the new British prime minister when he visited Stormont on Monday.

Ms McDonald said that following the Labour party's comprehensive win over the Conservatives in last week's UK elections, there is an opportunity to foster positive relations between Britain and Ireland.
