Police in the Parliament
No, not another raid, but this afternoon the Chief Constable made his way to Parliament Buildings to brief the 3 DUP Privy Counsellors on the Quinn murder. Afterwards Jeffrey Donaldson told us that the police aren't yet ready to endorse the Quinn family's view that the brutal killing was the work of the IRA. It's too early in their investigation, apparently, to be definitive. The Lagan Valley MP says his party won't fudge the matter, so let's watch this space.
Also this afternoon Gregory Campbell summoned Margaret Ritchie to the Social Development Committee to answer questions about axing funding to a UDA linked project. But if it sounded like a Kangaroo court in advance, the Committee turned into a "kiss and make up" session, with both politicians sounding like they wanted to move on when they spoke to us after the meeting. Perhaps the SDLP minister's critics are beginning to realise there are diminishing returns for them in prolonging this row.
