Assembly's censorship of Martin McGuinness accusation about Peter Robinson overturned... after 26 years

After a legal battle lasting over two years, the Belfast Telegraph can now report on what exactly they are. Olivia Peden is joined by Belfast Telegraph Northern Ireland Editor Sam McBride and Mediahuis Ireland solicitor Thomas Turner.  Hosted on Acast.
