The contrast with the inclusive & outward looking leadership offered by Michelle O’Neill could not be greater.
Unionism’s unwillingness to outreach in any substantive manner with nationalists sharing this place remains the greatest threat to enduring stable relations.
I have received an invitation for the inauguration events for the Irish President on Tuesday but it will not be possible for me to accept due to a number of other commitments in Belfast and Windsor.
Tuesday marks Remembrance Day, an important day for so many. I am scheduled to attend a service and to participate in an Act of Remembrance in Parliament Buildings before travelling to Windsor Castle at the invitation of Their Majesties, The King and Queen for a special reception to commemorate VJ Day 80th Anniversary to honour veterans of the Second World War, and in particular of the Pacific on this day of remembrance. It is therefore not possible to also attend the inauguration.
I wish Catherine Connolly well as she takes up office, recognising that this is undoubtedly a significant personal honour for her and I hope to speak with her personally in the next number of days.

Contrast & Compare to how @MaryLouMcDonald listens to the concerns of a mam and a carer.

Gript asked Sinn Féin leader Mary Lou McDonald for her pitch to any working class citizens who may have voted for Sinn Féin in 2020, but grown disillusioned with the party over issues like migration, hate speech laws and perceived "wokeness" ahead of #GE2024.
This was her reply:

Fianna Fáil misled the public on the €9m scheme for mobile phone pouches!
Two years ago, Minister Norma Foley met with a Yondr executive - the company supplying the pouches - and was even given a pouch by them.
Yet, she told the Dáil she had never met them. She must come back into the Dáil and set the record straight.
Fianna Fáil claimed it was a once-off cost. Now we know it will cost at least €2 million a year to replace 100,000 pouches.
The Fianna Fáil leader refused to answer my questions today.
Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael’s wasting of public money must end! It’s time for change.

It's a bit rich of Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael to come out now and start talking about all the work they are going to do in housing.
They have had 4 and a half years to fix the housing crisis and instead they have made it worse!

Colm Meany says all that need be said: "100 years of the same two parties is enough... the major issue here is housing and the party with the best housing policy and the best person to implement the housing policy is @sinnfeinireland @EOBroin..."
