And that is all your sport. Many thanks. That's it from us. Now

Many thanks. That's it from us. Now Good evening and welcome to BBC

Newsline. The police are investigating the circumstances

surrounding the sudden death of a man outside Dungannon. The body of

the man, believed to be in his 30s, was found in the garden of a house

in the Millview Manor area of the town this morning. A postmortem

examination is to be carried out to determine the cause of death. The

police haven't released any more details at this stage as they

continue their inquiries. There has been a petrol bomb attack

on a house in Coalisland. A device was thrown at the property at

Inishmore Park around half past ten last night, causing scorch damage to

a window. Nobody was in the house at the time. The police say three men

believed to have been involved in the incident made off in a white

coloured car along the Washingbay Road. The Sinn Fein MP for the area

has condemned the attack. I was speaking to this family this

morning and they are devastated completely. They don't know the

reason for it and are concerned that why this attack happened. I don't

believe it happened within -- by anyone within the Coalisland area

but we have no knowledge of that at the present time. The real situation

is that, you know, if there had not been someone's sitting on the sofa

in this situation, we would be talking about death this morning.

That is the sad situation. Police searching for missing

Ballymena woman Elizabeth Greer are investigating the discovery of a

body at Randalstown, close to Lough Neagh this morning.

The 46-year-old was last seen in Ballymena on Wednesday. The body has

not yet been formally identified and a postmortem is to be held.

The chairman of the Ulster Unionist Party, Lord Empey, has tabled an

amendment at Westminster which, if passed, would pave the way for an

opposition to be set up in the Assembly. Speaking on the Sunday

Politics show, the Ulster Unionist peer insisted that his proposals was

in line with party policy. If you look at the 2010 manner

Fausto, it had a position for opposition in the manifesto. In our

manifesto of 2011 it is included in it, and in Mike Nesbitt's maiden

speech in 2011 he raised the question of opposition. So whether

we as a party would ever seek to be in opposition is a totally different

issue from whether we have an official opposition or not. They are

separate issues, we want the provision to be applied because we

think it would strengthen Stormont, it would move as one stage towards

more normal politics and I can't see any reason why any person would be

opposed to it. And you can see The Sunday Politics Show again at eleven

o'clock on BBC Two. A leading charity in Northern

Ireland is calling on the Assembly to ban the sale of electronic

cigarettes to children under 18. It follows the decision by the

Public Health Minister in England to prohibit children buying

E-cigarettes. Electronic cigarettes deliver a hit of nicotine and emit

water vapour which mimics the feeling and look of smoking. Chest

Heart and Stroke believes Stormont should introduce similar

legislation. The quickest way to do that is to

use the children and families bill that is now progressing through

Westminster. If it is tagged onto that, we in Northern Ireland can use

that build to deliver this ban much more speedily so that we can stop

young people buying these E-cigarettes.

Turning to football now and Cliftonville defeated their North

Belfast rivals Crusaders to retain the League Cup last night.

But it took extra time and penalties to separate the two teams. Here's

Sharon Hall. Both sides had their chances, Liam

Boyce went close with this header, and the Crusaders responded when

this volley forced Conor Devon into a good save.

At the end of normal time, the deadlock was almost broken for the

Reds in injury time with a deft chip. When extra time ended

Scotland's, Devlin was the hero saving penalties. Cliftonville's

Gormley, or Carol and cold will put their kicks away. McLean needed to

find the net to in the contest. But the defender 's effort went wide to

Cliftonville celebrations. Now the weather. It is quite chilly

out there and where we have the skies clearing temperatures will

fall to freezing and below. Because we have wet surfaces there is a risk

of black face, mainly during the first part of tonight. We will also

see a scattering of showers continuing and over the hills and

mountains there will be sleet and snow. By tomorrow morning we will

see milder air from the West. By two morning -- tomorrow morning most of

what is falling out of this game will be rain. Tomorrow will be

unsettled, scattered showers throughout the day and windy with

blustery conditions. Many will wake up to a wet and damp start but like

today it will not rain all day, some bright weather to enjoy and the odd

spell of sunshine. It will not feel warm. Low pressure will be in

control across Britain and Ireland tomorrow bringing unsettled weather.

The best chance of dry weather will be in central areas of England and

towards the East Coast. Snow for some northern areas of England and

Scotland and across Ireland, Wales and the south-west of England wet

and blustery day. If you are out and about tomorrow, keep the umbrella

handy. It will be showering at times but there will be bright weather to

enjoy, too. Temperatures between six and eight Celsius will feel colder.

Towards Tuesday, they will pressure continues to swirl around bringing

outbreaks of rain and unsettled weather across many areas of Britain

and Ireland. For Northern Ireland it looks as though the best chance of

dry weather will be for Tuesday in the West. Damp weather continuing to

linger around coastal areas. We will get easterly winds on Tuesday,

feeling much colder as the called air comes from the continent.

Further spells of rain and scattered showers on Wednesday, slipping away

to watch Thursday, so by then we are expecting a drier day, for a while,

at least. That's it, our next bulletin is at

6:25am in the morning. For now, from everyone here, what ever you are

doing, have a good.
