Hell has now frozen over …

A photo and agreement one would have sworn would never happen. Ian Paisley and Gerry Adams agreeing to form a joint Government. Paisley will become First Minister of Northern Ireland and former IRA Chief of Staff Martin McGuinness will be his Deputy First Minister. Incredible. McGuiness has probably ordered Paisley assassinated at some stage in the past. They have both come a long way.

This is a very good day for the Irish. A lot of hard work ahead, but this is truly historic.
