If some early polling is to be believed, a Northern Ireland political party could hold something close to the balance of power after the General election. If the Democratic Unionists secure eight or more seats, Labour and the Conservatives may well explore the possibility of securing their support. Their leader Peter Robinson and Deputy Leader Nigel Dodds have already suggested that they've been wooed by the big parties. But what would the cost be, and what is on their shopping list? As part of our visits to 100 seats in the 100 days before the election, Andy Martin's report begins in the Unionist heartland of Shankill Road in west Belfast.

It showed that taking the HIV drug Truvada - when people don't have HIV can reduce the risk of infection in men-who-have-sex-with-men (MSM) by as much as 86%.

Green Party leader Natalie Bennett has apologised to party members for what she said was a "very bad" radio interview about its housing policy. Ms Bennett said she had suffered a "mind blank" during the "excruciating" exchange, where she tried to explain how the party would fund a pledge of 500,000 new social rental homes. She was speaking as the Greens launched their election campaign, with a press conference later in the day. The embarrassing episode has led some to question if the Greens are really a credible political party. Professor Jane Green is Professor of Political Science at the University of Manchester and Jim Waterson is Deputy Editor of Buzzfeed who was at yesterday’s press conference.
