NI election 2022: Alliance calls for DUP to 'step up to the plate'

Alliance leader Naomi Long has said the DUP must "step up to the plate" by nominating a deputy first minister.

An executive cannot be formed unless this happens, but the DUP has not yet made it clear whether it will do so.

Mrs Long's party more than doubled its representation at Stormont to 17 assembly members.

She warned the DUP against "overplaying its hand".
