A Leader Once Again

Pic of Day: Northern Ireland politics is lately resembling a game of musical chairs. Pictured is Mike Nesbitt, currently health minister at Stormont, who will become the leader of the Ulster Unionist Party (UUP) for the second time, this following the closure of nominations in which he was the sole candidate. Nesbitt will succeed Doug Beattie who recently resigned the UUP leadership. Yesterday, Colum Eastwood announced that he was stepping down as SDLP leader. RollingNews.ie file photo.
