The UK Government is committed to delivering for the people of Northern Ireland.

Today I met NI Parties to discuss key issues impacting the people of NI including the budgetary situation, the governance gap and steps they can take to deliver #DáithísLaw.

Today I have introduced a Bill to create more time for Parties to work together and return to government. An election in the coming weeks will not be helpful or welcome for people in Northern Ireland.

This is both alarming and disappointing. My thoughts are with those injured and I commend all PSNI officers for the work they do on a daily basis to keep the people of Northern Ireland safe.

I hope those responsible are brought to justice.
RT @ChiefConPSNI: In the last 7 days 43 of our officers have been assaulted in 30 separate incidents during the course of their duties. Injuries include broken fingers, a dislocated knee and several being spat on. To date 18…
