Deputy Pearse Doherty confirms he will attend PSNI interview over Drumcree protests


Donegal Deputy Pearse Doherty has confirmed he will attend a police interview in the period ahead over protests in Drumcree.

He says standing up for what is right is always the right thing to do.

Meanwhile, the North’s First Minister Michelle O’Neill says she will be interviewed by the PSNI later this week over protests on the Garvaghy Road.

She describes the protests as peaceful and says she is proud to stand in solidarity with residents to protect 28 years of peace.

Meanwhile, the DUP says it has no plans to ask deputy First Minister Emma Little-Pengelly to resign, despite pressure from the TUV amid worsening relations with Sinn Féin over the Drumcree parade dispute.

DUP leader Gavin Robinson says such a move would only cause pain and suffering across Northern Ireland:
