At the 'Ulster fry' breakfast at Tory conference in Birmingham he  argued that to renege on former Prime Minister Gordon Brown’s promise that spending levels to the Six Counties over 10 years would be hugely damaging

Martin McGuinness also said it is a critical point to ensure that nothing was done to stop economic growth or the progress made.
