@celticda09 So just false allegations and smears but no concrete examples? Good stuff.
@MrRCain2 With no governance in the interim? Even if a majority voted for change in a referendum, we'd still require devolved institutions at least until that transition occured.
@Irishbaldy2 I am the justice minister: I'm not responsible for operational policing, though.
I've increased the tools available to the PSNI to tackle organised crime and paramilitarism.
@PeterAn96321133 We're ready for an election?
Do you see it solving much?
@ismisemurachu22 I don't disagree that Brexit is responsible for the current grievance.
It doesn't explain why the Assembly has collapsed many times in the past, though.
That is my point: and the solution is reform.
@GeraldinBelfast We're ready for an election.
Not so sure what the argument is in favour of one, though: it doesn't solve the problem and it wastes circa £5m of public money.
We could have govt tomorrow if the DUP would do their jobs.
@celticda09 Eh? Back the DUP? As usual?
Since when?
RT @CllrMichaelLong: Lisnasharragh has some of worst EV charging point provision locally even with the introduction of these 2 shiny egs at the new Lidl.
Why I asked for this to be made a priority in August. Tonight my colleagues have proposed that Council develops a proper strategy for the future.
RT @Kelmba: Thank you to the Management & officials of #StrangfordFerry for a productive & insightful meeting.
Covered need for joined up government services, the amount of training & qualifications required to keep the service operational & safe, and future potential for net zero services
RT @allianceparty: It is absolutely unacceptable any party holds a veto preventing the Executive and Assembly from functioning - reform is overdue to stop one party being able to bring everything down.
@SorchaEastwood discusses the issue with @BBCTalkback
RT @connieegan94: Great meeting with Peter Osbourne, the new Director of @IEFNI.
Alliance are proud to have successfully delivered the Integrated Education Act 2022 in the last mandate. As an MLA, I committed to building on this progress alongside my party colleagues.
RT @PBNINews: Catherine Gregg, Area Manager based in HMP Magilligan explains how @PBNI work collaboratively with @NIPrisons to support overall rehabilitation and resettlement of those in custody as they progress safely out into the community. #PrisonWeek
The protocol is but the latest in a long list of reasons why our institutions have faced collapse over the years.
While a negotiated outcome on the protocol would be welcome, it alone won't secure the long-term stability of our institutions.
Only reform can end ransom politics.
RT @allianceparty: The only means to restore the Executive and Assembly on a sustainable footing is to reform the institutions, Alliance Leader @naomi_long…
RT @Justice_NI: 📹 Marking #NationalHCAW Minister Long attended today's @VictimSupportNI @HCASNI 'No Place for Hate' event, along with @ChiefConPSNI @MigrantCentreNI @LCinNIreland @TRPNI @PoliceServiceNI
RT @KateNicholl: Great to welcome this group who have come from Hong Kong to make Northern Ireland home & really lovely to hear such positive feedback - especially how friendly they’ve found people 💕
RT @PaulaJaneB: Wonderful to be at the launch of @QUBelfast Residential Language Scheme
Véronique & her colleagues campaigned so hard for this 12-bed scheme that will allow Irish speakers to immerse themselves in the language
Glad I could play a small part in helping to secure this scheme
RT @CllrMichaelLong: Montgomery Rd Cycle Link & Pedestrian Crossing Update.
Consultation on draft cycle route for Montgomery Rd earlier this year with plans for pedestrian crossing at Greenway. Amended formal consultation will happen in December/ January and hopefully will go ahead after this.
@Smith26993348 @KateNicholl @StephenNolan Actually, right now it might be the only or even the safest place for them, but it isn't the best.
The best is being treated in the community for the underlying causes of their mental health issues and/or substance abuse issues.
Calling them "losers" doesn’t help either.
@Ranaldini @C_Fitz_ @WomensAidNI @MensAdvisoryP @RobinSwannMoH We do.
RT @thePPSNI: Being the victim of or witnessing a crime can be traumatic.
This video explains our role and the services you can expect from the PPS as your case moves through the criminal justice system.
