Sinn Féin's Niall Ó Donnghaile last night became the youngest person ever to be appointed Lord Mayor of Belfast.
The 25-year-old is a new member of Belfast City Council, having been voted in as councillor for the Pottinger ward of east Belfast in the recent elections.
Before his election to council, Councillor Ó Donnghaile was a Sinn Féin press officer in the Stormont Assembly.
