Arts groups facing cuts, Farmer protests over milk prices, Sammy Wilson resigns as MLA.

A host of the country's major arts organisations have been told to brace themselves for more cuts.

Big names like the Grand Opera House, Ulster Orchestra, the Lyric and the Playhouse Theatres in Londonderry will all be hit.

The Arts Council has told 32 groups to plan for up to 10% being slashed from their budget this year.

Should a special case be made for the arts, or do they have to share the pain of Stormont cutbacks like everyone else?

'Find the animal who killed my daughter'. The devastated father, of Jennifer Dornan, made that plea after the police revealed Jennifer had been murdered.

It's led to double devastation for her family and the community in west Belfast.

It was initially thought Jennifer had died in a house fire. But now the police say it's their belief that whoever started the fire did so in order to destroy evidence.

A vigil was held last night for the mother of three.

Father Martin Graham was there.

Jennifer's close friend Andrea Gallagher says she was the 'best person in the world'. 

Dairy farmers are upping the ante in the war over the price of milk.

Last night dozens of tractors were driven to three supermarkets in Coleraine to protest.

Farmers partly blame the supermarkets for the fall in prices.

Further protests are planned this week outside Northern Ireland supermarkets as farmers warn they are in danger of going out of business. But what do they hope to achieve with the protests?

The DUP's Sammy Wilson is quitting the Assembly.

He's one of the last double-jobbers, and he had to choose between Stormont and Westminster. He's opted to remain an MP, and stand down as an MLA.

So what does his decision say about the DUP and the Assembly?
