NI Executive meets as Sunak and Varadkar visit Belfast

Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has told Stormont's leaders the "real work starts now" as he held talks in Belfast after power-sharing returned to Northern Ireland.

Taoiseach Leo Varadkar, who is also at Stormont to mark the restoration of devolution, said it was a "very positive day".

Westminster has allocated £3.3 billion to the newly formed Executive.

However, Northern Ireland's leaders say more money is desperately needed to deliver public services.
