100 years ago the mercenary Free State establishment confirmed the sell-out of northern nationalists for £150m. Republicans argued that the Treaty, sold on a lie of it being a stepping-stone to freedom, would be a disaster for Ireland and they were right. Free Statism continues.

The British government’s two-child cap is a cruel attack on hard pressed families. Sinn Féin has directly challenged the British government to scrap the cap in their upcoming budget. This budget must prioritise supporting workers and families through the cost-of-living crisis.

It is time for the minister to listen to the widespread concerns about his proposals, finalise a strong plan to tackle poverty and ensure no family is left without the support they need.

True leadership is shown through acknowledgement & respect. While the Deputy First Minister has decided not to attend Catherine Connolly’s inauguration, Michelle O’Neill continues to be a First Minister for all, showing respect for all traditions & perspectives in our society.
