Mary Lou McDonald and I have spoken today with SNP leader John Swinney and Plaid Cymru leader Rhun ap Iorwerth. The momentum for constitutional change across these islands is now greater than ever. People in Ireland, Scotland and Wales are looking towards a future beyond the Union, where we have full control over our own affairs. We discussed the enormous significance of this week’s election results, and the historic potential of having three nationalist, pro-independence First Ministers. We agreed to continue working together to strengthen the friendship between our nations, and to stand up for the democratic right of our people to self-determination.


DUP Leader Gavin Robinson has poured scorn on renewed hopes of a united Ireland in the wake of nationalist victories in the British local elections. belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/politics/… belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/politics/…



Historic change is underway in Ireland, Scotland & Wales. There is growing momentum for us to take control of our own affairs beyond the constraints & failures of Westminster. With the potential for three nationalist, pro-independence First Ministers, there is a real opportunity to shape a new & better future built on hope, prosperity & self-determination.




@afneil Why wouldn’t you wish Scotland well if we made the democratic decision to leave the UK? Strange attitude.







I have contacted SNP leader John Swinney and Plaid Cymru leader Rhun ap Iorwerth to congratulate them on their enormous mandates. For the first time ever, there could be three pro-independence First Ministers across these islands. More and more people are looking towards a future beyond the constraints of the Union. I look forward to continuing to build the friendship between the people of our nations, and to working closely with both John and Rhun in the time ahead.


For the first time ever, there could be three nationalist, pro-Independence First Ministers across these islands. Historic change is happening. The demand for independence is growing.
