Pressure on some of our most vital services - health and education. A local principal has told of having to beg parents to provide reading books, glue, tissues, soap and toilet roll. This in order to meet the basic needs of the childrens' education and wellbeing at school. Graham Gault principal of Maghaberry Primary School was one of 4 school principals speaking at NI Affairs Committee into education funding and he accused our politicians of "playing pathetic games". Is our school network on its knees? Graham Gault joined Stephen in the studio this morning.
