Campbell loses Culture post

Gregory Campbell has lost his position as Culture Minister during a reshuffle of the DUP's Executive team.

Mr Campbell is to be replaced by North Belfast MLA Nelson McCausland.

It’s believed the reshuffle is part of the DUP’s plan to end ‘double-jobbing’ - politicians sitting at both Stormont and Westminster.

Earlier this year, DUP leader Peter Robinson said most of the party’s MPs who were also ministers in the Stormont Executive would give up their ministerial portfolios.

Mr Campbell served just over one year as Culture Minister.
