Northern Ireland will be the only part of the UK where emergency legislation to block terrorists being automatically freed from jail won't apply. UUP MLA Doug Beattie has called on the UK Government to rethink its policy. He spoke to Stephen this morning along with commentator Phil Kelly. Also on the podcast, Secretary of State Julian Smith has been sacked by Boris Johnson in cabinet reshuffle. Is he a big loss to politics in Northern Ireland? Stephen spoke to UUP MLA Doug Beattie, SDLP MP Claire Hanna, News Letter deputy editor Ben Lowry, commentators Jamie Bryson, Alex Kane and Mairia Cahill, and Margaret McGuckin from SAVIA.
