Whilst the rest of the UK and the assembly tries to assist the business community, Infrastructure Minister Nichola Mallon comes up with her own take on how to assist us: close the road 24/7 and starve them.

We, the traders, can only hope that the rest of her colleagues and her party leader has a word with her ... soon.
