northern ireland for the first time. second day of counting in council elections. a62 seats are being contested. i've been speaking to our ireland correspondent emma vardy and i asked her why sinn fein�*s message seems to have resonated so well. we're about three quarters of the way through the counting, second day of counting here, and yesterday morning. the picture was becoming pretty clear yesterday though and sinn fein�*s positionjust being cemented hour by hour, today as well. don't forget, sinn fein, their ultimate aim is to leave the uk and join up with the irish republic to create a united ireland but they don't put this front and centre of their campaign. they try to broaden their appeal, talk to people about issues that affect everybody, but something that has particularly benefited them this time around has been the situation not in local councils but up in stormont, the devolved government, where their rivals, the dup, the largest unionist party, have been blocking a return to power—sharing. they have been bo

the results of the council elections in northern ireland showed the fans. some of the people who want northern ireland to remain a part of the united kingdom are declining , and this account lost more than 40 people . the result of the leaders of pro-monarchy parties and the survival of northern ireland under the umbrella of london is more worrying and i will try to thailand. northern remains part of britain schieffer's victory in the recent elections was predictable, but its dimensions were surprising. it seems that the two political, religious and social fabric in northern ireland society will be resolved in the near future . the union with ireland has so far been dominated by the pro-monarchy parties in northern ireland. now, with the result of the election, the issue of the republicans has been strengthened. if the party supporting the union with great britain continues to throw stones at the formation of a local government , then his party will use this technique to form a local government. he will probably call for an early election, which is expected

in northern ireland, sinn fein have called on the dup to return to power sharing in northern ireland,government as well as the stormont assembly. its vice president michelle o'neill has claimed the result shows voters want northern ireland to get a government back. our ireland correspondent, emma vardy, reports. sinn fein are celebrating a second historic win in 12 months. the party made breakthroughs across northern ireland, winning seats in areas it has never had councillors elected before. the party says the victory is an endorsement by voters that the blocking of the stormont assembly must end. for me, it definitely was about positive leadership, it was about a restoration of the executive, it was about making politics work, and i'm very glad that that has resonated with the electorate and that they have come out in such strong numbers where we now are on course to have a very momentous election result. and then it is now obviously what we are going to do next, which is, in my opinion, we need to work, double down in terms of getting an executive restored. northern ireland is curr

once again, the cloudy conditions likely to be across northern ireland and scotland, but the majority will be largely dry down towards the south and the south west, cardiff, plymouth up to 22 degrees. so the weather set up really throughout next week is for high pressure to be to the south west of us. that high pressure nosing its way in bringing largely fine and settled conditions. but with the winds coming around the top of that area of high pressure, generally from a west or a north westerly direction, it is never going to feel particularly warm. that said, in the sunshine, 17 to 20 degrees, that will be relatively pleasant. still quite cool on tuesday, though, for some north sea coast, generally cooler in the north of scotland. now into wednesday, that area of high pressure may retreat westwards enough to allow a slightly more active frontal system to push in across the north west of scotland with cloud and some outbreaks of rain. maybe some of that rain getting into the north coast of northern ireland, further south and east england and wales, largely dry spells of sunshine 17 to
