Well done @SammyHeenan for speaking out once again. This Govt process is an affront to decency and an insult to innocent victims and their families. The unwarranted and vile abuse on this thread is something that needs to be stamped out.
As a victim of the Provos, it's absolutely deplorable that someone like Gerry Adams could be entitled to compensation for his imprisonment. Hearing Adams talking about "human rights responsibilities" is unfathomable when the PIRA afforded no such rights to any of their victims.

Once again the Chancellor showing disregard for farming families across the U.K. She has time to jet round the world for economic discussions but none to meet the nations providers at home!

This should not be allowed to happen! The history of this in Scotland shows how deeply flawed this decision is. I will be challenging the Govt on this matter.
A transgender woman detained on charges of threatening to kill her neighbour has won a landmark High Court battle to be transferred to Northern Ireland’s female prison. ➡️

A devastating blow to @WASPI_Campaign women today as the SOS confirms they won’t get a penny of compensation/support for the maladministration on the part of the Gov which has financially disadvantaged thousands of 1950s born women across the UK inc.many in Upper Bann. Outrageous

This week marks 2 years since Natalie McNally was murdered in her own home. On Saturday, sadly Karen Cummings became the latest woman to be murdered. The PPS and Justice Department need to ensure the toughest sentences for perpetrators.

As per my previous message, please give the police time and space to make their inquiries into this sad situation. My thoughts and prayers are with the family and loved ones of this woman.
Police are investigating the circumstances surrounding the sudden death of a woman at a property in the Laurel Heights area of Banbridge this evening, Saturday 14th December. Cordons are in place. More details will follow in due course.

I am aware of an ongoing incident in the Banbridge area. I would ask everyone to give the emergency services time and space to conduct their duties, and respect the privacy of the local residents.

As the UK’s biggest killer, dementia is robbing us of everything that matters - our memories, connections & stories. I'm standing with @AlzResearchUK on their journey #ForACure by raising awareness & putting a political spotlight on dementia. Together, we will tackle dementia.

Some months ago I pressed the Health Minister on this topic, and I am delighted that the Northern Ireland Executive have followed medical and scientific expert advice to ban puberty blockers for under 18’s.

A missed opportunity today to remove barriers in trading between GB and NI. This was a workable solution brought forward by @JimAllister which could have gained support from both the EU and U.K. without any potential risk to either market.

Once again Labour demonstrated that they have no regard for those who feed our Nation. Their belligerence and arrogance on this issue is staggering especially with so many representing rural constituencies. I am sure this will not be forgotten at the ballot box #FarmTaxGrab

Are there test results showing this product is safe in the food chain @ArlaFoodsUK? Have there been any longer term side effects to health? What retailers are using your products? Will items be labelled showing which products contain this Bovaer additive? #Boaver
We have just announced a new project with @Morrisons, @Tesco and @AldiUK to trial the use of feed additive, Bovaer® on ~30 Arla farms. Bovaer® can reduce emissions from cows by 27%, and this represents an amazing chance to reduce emissions on farm. #agriculture #climate
