...looks like George Mitchell should start packing his bags. The former U.S. senator from Maine, who engineered last year's Good Friday accord aimed at bringing peace in Northern Ireland, saw the agreement in tatters on Thursday when Protestant loyalists pulled up at the last hurdle. Britain on Thursday formally put the peace process under review after David Trimble's Ulster Unionist Party refused to take its seats at the head of the new Northern Ireland Assembly created by the agreement.
