McGuinness heads to America
Sinn Féin Chief Negotiator Martin McGuinness is in America today for a meeting with US special envoy to the North, Mitchel Reiss.
Martin McGuinness refused to be drawn on what would happen next as he boarded a plane at Dublin airport.
Mr McGuinness said: "Gerry Adams and I have resisted getting into speculation about any of these matters.
"We should all be patient - the IRA have clearly indicated that they are involved in work, and we need to give them space to complete that work."
But you are the IRA Martin. What is the point of this trip to America? Just release the statement and be done with it for crying out loud.
