I'm an SDLP member & representative, whose family were harassed & murdered by loyalist paramilitaries, and I'm now being told that my party is aligning itself with 'extreme voices in loyalism.' This is embarrassing nonsense which no-one believes and which should be deleted.
Fiachra McGuinness@fiachramcg

The state was designed to keep a nationalist from becoming First Minister. History changed in 2024 when Michelle O’Neill took office. The SDLP’s proposal to abolish the First Minister title aligns them with extreme voices in loyalism and unionism.

⁉️🗣WATCH: 'We want to reframe the North. Not as just some pity party, basket-case, loser place.' 🎥🎤Chief Reporter @jamesgould23 speaking to @SDLPlive Leader @ClaireHanna, alongside Stormont Opposition Leader @MatthewOToole2. Claire Hanna was asked about a new document from the party which aims to “prepare for a new Ireland.” The proposals, set out in the “Success by Design” document, explore the potential economic benefits of what that new Ireland could look like, according to the party. Just months ago, the Secretary of State told Chief Reporter James Gould there was no appetite for constitutional change here. Claire Hanna says those comments were raised directly with Hilary Benn.

Great to meet with Minister @HMcEntee today. Grateful she made the time amid an intense week internationally. I set out the SDLP's view on the need to urgently reform a broken Stormont and the huge potential opportunities from the Irish EU Presidency.

Stormont is a political Hotel California, where the future never arrives. At PMQs, SDLP Leader @ClaireHanna challenged a system that protects stalemate while people pay the price every day. Today, the Prime Minister signalled engagement on Stormont reform.

Stormont Ministers didn’t land here by accident. They asked people for their trust and made clear promises to deliver. As the official Opposition, the SDLP will keep setting the agenda and holding Ministers to account on the big issues and the everyday ones too.

The DUP complain about the UK and the EU yet offer no future for Northern Ireland. Today the Assembly backed an SDLP amendment supporting the creation of an EU office in Belfast, a sign that many here want better representation and stronger links with Europe.

Contempt doesn't cover my views on the masked thugs threatening elected representatives in Newry and Down, including friends and colleagues. It is no exaggeration to say democracy is under threat worldwide but here they are using the same tools of the past. They won't win.

SDLP Leader of the Opposition Matthew O’Toole says it’s time to bring more power back to Northern Ireland. People here shouldn’t be stuck reacting to decisions made in London. We should be making more of those decisions ourselves.

Opposition Day means accountability. SDLP Leader of the Opposition Matthew O’Toole called out the do-nothing approach that has left housing, infrastructure, jobs and environmental protection stalled.

If Stormont is to serve people properly, it must change. SDLP Leader of the Opposition Matthew O’Toole pressed the First Minister to commit to serious reform before the end of this mandate.

The COVID Inquiry report has lessons for us all. But the findings for NI couldn't be starker: both the DUP and Sinn Féin crudely prioritised narrow party interest over the public good. It's a reminder of why the SDLP Opposition is pushing for real change at a broken Stormont.

The new legacy legislation was debated in the House of Commons last night and I took the opportunity to set the record straight about what happened on Bloody Sunday for those who have chosen to ignore the truth for decades.
