Irish, all over will be rightly proud of Blinne Ní Ghrálaigh & completely ashamed that their Goverment did not support this cause
So proud of Ireland’s Blinne Ní Ghrálaigh who didn’t hesitate to present the South African ICJ case against Israel today.

It is really worrying that the DUP Minister of Education is reported to have threatened cutting teachers pay over strike action. The same DUP who are refusing to form an Executive. Some teachers go to food banks now, this latest threat to teachers is disgraceful.

Seriously, would ppl who are speaking about the terrible impact of not having an executive, please call out the DUP as the reason. It is untrue to call on Parties to get back to the Executive when it is only the DUP blocking it. £435m could put £ where it is needed, DUP to blame

The LCC Spokesperson David Campbell claims that Michelle O’Neill as FM is undemocratic, as he chairs secret meetings with the UVF, UDA, RHC et al. Speaking about the LCC as though they are an openly elected Party is even more bizzare.

Irony of news not lost on the families of the 5 shot dead & several others injured in Sean Graham’s. One of the survivors, was arrested at a local vigil to remember the dead & injured. No one ever charged with the UFF shootings. That should be the story but of course it’s not.

Elements of the UDA are understood to be following suit.

It is now approaching racism & sectarianism. If Joe Biden’s family identified as any other heritage & religion, I doubt comments like this would be made. All of us would do well to remember that the DUP’s record on rights are horrendous. Still unacceptable & disturbing.
Jeffrey Donaldson should be asked does he concur with his senior DUP colleague’s sentiments.
