Michelle's last day

Mark Devenport | 16:45 UK time, Tuesday, 7 October 2008

She's not following the Dutch example (where a pop singer was recently drafted in to provide maternity cover for an MP). Instead Michelle Gildernew is intending to work from home as much as possible now her third child is due. Today was her last day at Stormont (if the baby had arrived yesterday he or she would have shared Gerry Adams' birthday).

The Agriculture Minister told us on Stormont Live that she would use Loughry College for video conferencing to cut down on her need to travel. And so far as the rush to the hospital is concerned, she is assuming that will be her husband's duty, rather than a job for the ministerial driver.
