McGuinness addresses Sinn Féin event in London


The North's Deputy First Minister, Martin McGuinness, has addressed a Sinn Féin event in London this evening.

Speaking about his meeting with England's Queen Elizabeth yesterday, he compared it to some of the most political, significant and symbolic events throughout his forty-year career.
