"The Treasury contribution to fund public services in Northern Ireland is going down rather than rising. As an example, in England up to 2025, spending will increase by 6% but only 3.6% in Northern Ireland." @GRobinsonDUP

"Hey mum, it's me..." is a convincing message to receive for many, but if an unknown number contacts you and asks for money - stop and check. If you are unsure, call the person on their original number. Learn how to protect yourself from WhatsApp scams at https://t.co/gegXrYoIAu

The recent escalation of the threat level to severe and the attempted murder of DCI John Caldwell are reminders that the eulogising of murder and bloodshed will inevitably be taken by others as the green light to carry out violence. @NigelDoddsDUP

Well done Cllr Gareth Spratt - an important step for parents who unexpectedly find parental leave impacted so profoundly. Through your own experience you are shaping the future positively for others 👍
Councillors in Belfast have voted to change maternity leave provision for @belfastcc employees who have premature babies. If given final approval, it means mothers of premature babies will not start their maternity leave until the due date of the child.

A pivotal moment for many people as the violent & hate-filled horror of terrorism was broadcast into their homes. There was nowhere to hide from this barbarity. So many involved in these murders still walk our streets. Some hv no shame. No excuse & there was always an alternative
Remember Cpl David Howes, 23 & Cpl Derek Wood, savagely murdered on 19/3/88. They were violently pulled from their car by a frenzied crowd of Irish republicans & after being beaten & stabbed, were then shot dead at point blank range - an act of barbarism. https://t.co/25hlSrisL5

For us it’s a criticism not of people but strategy. Belfast neighbourhoods are changing and Council must adapt. This is one of our core services, and must be prioritised as such going forward @EastBelfastDUP

The new proposed agreement and documents sets out in absolute stark terms the many huge bureaucratic and unworkable aspects of the Protocol. Damming on all those who denied there were any significant problems, supported "rigorous implementation" and dismissed and demeaned.
"Those parties in Northern Ireland who travelled to Dublin to cheerlead for the Northern Ireland Protocol need to accept they were too focused on anti-unionist politics and failed to focus enough on what was best for Northern Ireland" - Gregory Campbell

Whilst they can delete statements from their websites and try to expunge the record, the facts remain, they mocked our calls for change, ignored the problems and instead called for a bad deal to be made, in effect, a worse one. Gregory Campbell MP https://t.co/r9bcKAVRlH
