A ROW flared between Peter
Robinson and Jim Allister
yesterday when the reappointed
first minister pledged to be a
thorn in the flesh of anyone
trying to obstruct the democratic
processes.
On the first day of the new
assembly term, Mr Robinson
hit out at dissident republicans
and appeared to take a swipe at
the TUV chief when he referred
to those inside the assembly
who would thwart the will of
the people, as would terrorists
outside Stormont.
While he and reappointed
deputy first minister Martin
McGuinness promised to
redouble their efforts to create
a better and shared future in
Northern Ireland, he added that
those who opposed the peace
process would ultimately fail.

Bid to reduce
departments
The possible reduction of
the number of government
departments and ministers
was under discussion last
night between parties at
Stormont.
A DUP spokesman said the
reform of government was one
of the issues on the agenda.
“We have been pushing this
for 13 years,” he said.
“We are hopeful we will see
changes in the near future.”
