Yesterday was a fairly historic day in Northern Ireland but you wouldn't, for editorial reasons unknown, have known it from the front page of today's Guardian. The stories that they chose to give prominence over the good news from the long troubled province are "Bullying: calls for national inquiry" and "Secret royal wills - mistresses, jewels and cover-ups" whilst Northern Ireland and the historic meeting between Messrs. Paisley and Adams is relegated to page 4.
It isn't like this was late breaking news. Did the editor go down the pub for a Monday evening piss up and leave the decision to the tea lady?
