Sinn Féin continues its Ard Fheis in Belfast this morning.
Last night Finance Spokesman Pearse Doherty called for a mini-budget to be introduced to deal with the cost of living.
He has been rousing troops in Belfast with a sharp speech criticising the Government:
He is also calling for a mini-budget to be urgently introduced to tackle the cost of living.
Eyes have been turning to Doherty as a potential future leader of Sinn Féin sooner rather than later - with reports of dissatisfaction with Mary Lou McDonald's leadership.
She'll deliver the closing address at this conference tonight well aware that her performance is under the microscope.
The motions before Sinn Féin this weekend range from support for a ban on fox hunting to recognising the importance of seaweed - mixing the strange and the sublime as TD Ruairi O Murchu did last night when supporting his Dail colleague Joanna Byrne:
Mary Lou McDonald is due to speak to the media this morning as she bookends day two of this Ard Fheis.
