@ROBERTHEANEY10 @aggressie It was ever thus. Sad individuals.

@Stephen5529 @AmandaFBelfast Sadly, a skill that is much needed when so many others specialise in denying or ignoring it.

RT @StephenFarryMP: We continue to push UKG for a timescale for £400 payments, plus the oil top-ups.
Interesting answer which suggests the delay is related to potential for unlocking credit on electricity bills for use other pressures, including, by implication, oil.

Honoured to be hosting this launch next week at Parliament Buildings.
We live in an increasingly diverse society, and opportunities to share together and learn from each other are precious and enrich us all.

@bryanreid26 @ParentingNI We work with a wide range of different organisations, sometimes based on our constituency, sometimes on what spokesperson role we hold, sometimes just our own experience. If they ask for our help, and it's a good cause, we try to help.

@MakeNifree @KennyRoss93 @Simon4NDorset All of those they still have access to, as do abstentionist DUP MLAs, but the latter also get salaries while the former don't.
@nickmartinPP @PMcReynoldsMLA @deptinfra Thanks, Nick.
I'll report that now and ask for urgent repairs.
@MarkWilson1980 Not sure where you get that from? I'm literally saying I want urgency injected into efforts to restore the Assembly for the benefit of Northern Ireland.
@jemo_big Something we've consistently raised.
@Double_Speak812 Our mess is Brexit, but I agree that the Govt not only sold people a pup but doubled down on that by lying about the protocol.
None of that justifies not having a government.
@E2020Mc @realLangerDan You don't know what we do with our salaries, so careful not to presume.
@ThickettDuncan Hardly. I was the one who called for salaries to be cut.
The issue is the lack of any urgency to get the institutions restored and fuctioning.
Whilst cutting salaries is the right thing to do in the absence of progress, getting the place fuctioning ASAP is vital.
@Robbie508565471 So why set an unrealistic deadline if they are the hold-up?
I've no issue with pay being cut - I called for it.
I have issues with people dragging their heels about solutions.
@EBLoyalist1912 @Simon4NDorset Any evidence to back that up? The majority of businesses and farmers disagree with you. And you realise that wherever the border goes:
1. There will still be checks at the Irish Sea (there always have been)
2. Good will still be more expensive due to Brexit?
@EBLoyalist1912 @Simon4NDorset Removed or reformed? There are differences of opinion within unionism and, indeed, within the DUP on that.
@33lnh0J Exactly what we said last time. We warned that this will keep happening until neither of the main parties have the power to hold the institutions to ransom.
@JulianSmithUK and @simoncoveney rejected reform in 2020.
@chhcalling and @simoncoveney are in danger of repeating that.
