Summary
The fallout from Jeffrey Donaldson’s conviction continues to rock the Democratic Unionist Party (DUP). In this week’s episode of Stormont Sources, David McCann, Tim Cairns and Michael McKernan, are joined by former DUP Special Advisor David Graham, to dissect the internal crisis. Is this the end of the road for the leading party of unionism, or can Gavin Robinson steady the ship amidst allegations of a "culture of fear" and major media management failures? In the second half of the episode, we pivot to a massive economic warning for Northern Ireland. Andrew Webb from OCO Global joins the podcast to break down a stark new report from the Wastewater Infrastructure Group. Without urgent action and a potential wastewater levy, inaction on NI's Victorian-era sewage network could cost the economy a staggering £10.9 billion by 2040 and stall the construction of 55,000 homes.
