One year ago Stormont returned to much fanfare and positive words. Today we have seen little of that positivity translate into meaningful action.

Conor Murphy swapping control of a £1bn budget for a backbench Seanad seat is baffling. No Irish party sends their top people to the Seanad any more than British parties send their key people to the House of Lords. There are three possible explanations.

A shameful decision by the SoSNI. The cruelty visited upon this family didn’t stop with the bullets pumped into their defenceless father.

This is the most important project of this generation. and @columeastwood.ie is well placed to drive it. Building upon well established relations, playing to @sdlp.bsky.social strengths, we can reach people that others can’t. A New Ireland cannot be delivered by one party alone.

Absolutely delighted for the Brown family! There’s still a long way to go but they are back on the path again. “True peace is not merely the absence of tension; it is the presence of justice.”

While proclaiming itself left-wing in Dublin, Sinn Féin in Belfast has just decided to keep the poorest homeowners subsidising the tax bills of the wealthiest people in NI living in multi-million-pound mansions. Whatever this is, it's not left wing.

My constituents Omar & Delma have tried for months to get family to safety from Gaza. Last week they received news they’ve dreaded, that relatives were killed & injured. Situation is getting worse not better & while UK Gov cannot ‘fix’ this they must do so much more than they are

Now the consent motion has passed our attention must turn to the independent review of our future relationship with Europe. We will be taking our key asks to the EU, UK and Irish Governments, and other stakeholders in the weeks and months ahead.

"Belfast is not in crisis" - John O'Dowd just now in the Assembly. The Infrastructure Minister clearly hasn't been in the city centre over the past month to see the congestion crisis. He could reduce metro bus fares, as we proposed, as a start to help people.

Ross Neill, a solicitor from a unionist background living in Dublin, is a valuable, articulate contribution to the debate on forging a new Ireland. Do read it.
