The First and Deputy First Ministers are making quite an impression with their jovial relationship. So much so that one Ulster Unionist MLA has dubbed Ian Paisley and Martin McGuinness "the Chuckle Brothers." And is insisting that the title is much simpler than the mouthful that is their official titles. Not sure it will take off though, but it certainly goes with the potential slogan suggested by Mark Devenport last week: "a giggle a day keeps the direct rulers away!"
