The Police Federation (PFNI), which represents rank-and-file PSNI officers has called an extraordinary general meeting next week.

The trigger for a no confidence vote in crisis-stricken PSNI Chief Constable Simon Byrne is expected to be pulled during what will be the third emergency meeting of the Policing Board in a month today.

Chief Constable Simon Byrne has said he will not resign and that a High Court ruling which said the PSNI had wrongfully punished two officers may be appealed.

It was a mixed night for the Irish across the water – and one which saw plenty of postponements.
