Is a United Ireland "within touching distance"? If young people have anything to do with it, the answer is yes! My take on changing political landscapes for the Guardian in October: theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

#100daysofgaeilge Tip 37 As with most things in life, a positive attitude can help with language learning. It's been associated with a willingness to keep learning. (Lightbown & Spada, 2021, p.90) 'Coinnigh ort agus tiocfadh sí!' 'Keep going and it will come!'

Jesus Christ Seán. You ought to be ashamed of yourself. Treating us as somehow inferior. As lesser. As an embarrassment. And you call yourself a Gael? And an Irishman?

‘A decade of opportunity’ says @MaryLouMcDonald . No Mary, ‘a decade of opportunism’ by @sinnfeinireland . When @duponline deserve credit for swallowing pride & getting #Northern Ireland Assembly back, you create division by calling for a #Borderpoll ! #CalmThingsDown .

Some just want to stretch out the desire, the planning and the debate on a United Ireland for another 800 years! There is a responsibility on all who believe in a United Ireland to plan for it. To call it opportunistic 26 years after the signing of the GFA is just daft.

You cannot stop the march of time, nor can you ignore the changing landscape. Unionism is in steady decline, NI is now more than 2 communities, research is being done at pace on a United Ireland, "yes" & "no" campaigns are already being started. There will be a border poll.

A man of many firsts. 1st SF Belfast Councillor after 70 years 1st SF Mayor of Belfast 1st South Belfast SF MLA 1st SF leader on policing board A leader from the front with integrity, courage & humility. A loyal ear and advisor in difficult times. Proud to call Alex mo chara.
Mary Lou McDonald@MaryLouMcDonald

Yesterday's warm cross party tributes to @AlexMaskeySF are just one measure of this extraordinary Republican By any measure a courageous generous & determined leader. He leaves frontline politics but I'm sure that his activism will continue. Much love to him, Liz agus clann ♥️

As predictable as unionists huffing and puffing - before caving in? As they have done on every issue since Stormont was originally prorogued in 1972.
Arlene Foster DBE PC #ProudofNI.@ArleneFosterUK

Sinn Fein resorts to talking about a “unity poll” when they feel under pressure- as predictable as the flowers in May. Still administering UK rule in NI and will be. Looking forward to strengthening the UK through the new bodies brought about by this deal. 🇬🇧

This is truly shocking and shameful. The political system and most especially those in Government who broke promise after promise to these children and their parents should hang their heads in shame. This should not be tolerated.

Entirely appropriate for An Taoiseach to meet the new Stormont leadership alongside Sunak, not least after the provocative Tory/DUP document published last week. Date for North/South Ministerial Council mtg should also be announced soon.
RTÉ News@rtenews

Taoiseach Leo Varadkar is to meet the British Prime Minister in Belfast tomorrow following the restoration of devolved government on Saturday. Rishi Sunak arrived in Northern Ireland this evening and is also due to meet leaders tomorrow | Read more: rte.ie/b/1430377

Let this nonsense end with immediate effect. Any notion that the express pursuit of a United Ireland 🇮🇪 is ‘untimely’, ‘unhelpful’, ‘insensitive’. Sooner the better for everyone. Let us plan for it now.
