´óÏó´«Ã½

Just back from Enniskillen (hence no blogs yesterday), where I've been shadowing Enterprise minister Arlene Foster, for a documentary on "Ministers and Motherhood." The radio documentary focuses on Ms Foster and the farming minister Michelle Gildernew, who also has three children.

Ms Foster's daughter Sarah, aged 8, is certainly proud of her mother - but admitted in interview she preferred it when she was Environment minister because she brought home books featuring "Oscar the Otter." In fact young Sarah was so enthusiastic about conservation her family dubbed her "Junior minister of the Environment."

Ms Gildernew has been bringing her three month old baby daughter to work on occasion - including Executive meetings. Find out which Ulster Unionist councillor has been left holding the baby....

The documentary airs on ´óÏó´«Ã½ Radio Ulster on February 21 at 11.30am.
