Description
On The Tonight Show with Kieran Cuddihy
A sharp decline in people taking out private health insurance is raising serious concerns, as rising premiums push coverage out of reach and add more strain to the public system.
In Ballymena, unrest has intensified with arrests and injuries after protests over a sexual assault case turned violent and racially charged.
Meanwhile, the Central Bank say they cannot refuse sale of Israeli war bonds.
