Surprised at wording in Shared Isl/B-I section Prog for Gov, given reconciliation aim: ‘committed to the unity of the Irish people’. Hume said ‘unity of ‘people’ on island -not only ‘Irish’! No mention of BIIGC, or NSMC, or of ‘robust implementation’ of 3 strands,was in 2020, in this section.

For Northern Protestants comfortably to call themselves Irish, what it means to be Irish must change also www.irishtimes.com/life-style/p...

Must-read by @conorjkelly.bsky.social on the potential impact of the election on B-I relations & warning that the GFA’s E-W institutions ‘should run alongside, and arguably be prioritised over, ad hoc summits or photo op events’.
