Jeremy Corbyn is in Northern Ireland today in his first visit as Labour leader. But before he even landed he's angered some unionists.  The DUP say they invited Mr Corbyn to meet IRA victims. But the labour party say the invite came too late so the meeting won't go ahead. Mr Corbyn will also set out his vision for Brexit, he will call for the revival of the contentious British Irish Intergovernmental Conference to enable the UK and Irish governments to work together to save powersharing in Northern Ireland. And in a newspaper article yesterday Mr Corbyn's spokesman said a combined majority throughout the north and south want a United Ireland. NI Labour's Phil Kelly, DUP MLA Jim Wells and commentator Malachi O'Doherty discuss.
