McGuinness resignation 'will lead to elections'

The World Tonight

Available for over a year

As Northern Ireland's Deputy First Minister - Sinn Fein's Martin McGuinness - resigns, one of the party's MLAs, Alex Maskie tells us a mishandled green energy scheme was 'the straw that broke the camel's back'. Also as talks on the reunification of Cyprus get underway, we speak to Greek and Turkish Cypriots living in the UK. And a decade after the iPhone's launch, Paul Moss reports on how the smartphone has changed the way we live and work. Picture: Martin McGuinness Credit: PA.
