Our top story this morning, allegations in the Dail yesterday about a major property deal in Northern Ireland. Independent TD Mick Wallace claimed Belfast law firm, Tughans, had 7 million pounds in a bank account reportedly earmarked for a politician after the deal. Tughans has denied the allegation. Mr Wallace was raising concerns over the sale of the Northern Ireland property portfolio of the National Assets Management Agency or Nama in 2014. Nama is the so called bad bank which took on bad loans after the property crash. It was bought by New York firm Cerberus Capital Management for £1.3 BILLION. Last night politicians called for an investigation into the claims. Stephen talks to BBC Business and Economics editor John Campbell and TUV leader Jim Allister
