Under Claire Hanna, the SDLP is the nationalist party with energy, confidence, ideas, leadership and a sense of purpose to an extent reminiscent of an early John Hume - and which increasingly exposes Sinn Fein as central to the failing NI establishment. belfasttelegraph.co.uk/comment/opinio…

The SDLP has overtaken Alliance to become Northern Ireland’s most followed political party on Instagram after a sustained surge in engagement driven by viral video content from senior figures. belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/sdlp-wide…

As Opposition leader, it's important I'm held accountable too given I demand ir of ministers, which is why I have accepted the findings, while making clear the rules aren't fit for purpose. I only wish Ministers Lyons or Givan had demonstrated any accountability in recent months

I was found technically in breach of a bizarre and Pythonesque rule because I confirmed publicly that I had reported Gordon Lyons over his appalling post. Nevertheless, the rules are there so I have apologised. Unlike Mr Lyons, who has arrogantly refused any accountability.

If the First Ministers' department produced any meaningful policies or output beyond intermittent photo-opps, this figure might be remotely defensible. But they don't. (And, before I'm asked, the TEO SpAd Bill alone is *five times* the entire budget for the official Opposition).
The Irish News@irish_news

The first and deputy first ministers’ six special advisers were awarded an inflation-busting pay rise two years running that has brought the total cost of their salaries to more than £450,000. Michelle O’Neill and Emma Little-Pengelly’s highest paid aides saw their salaries increase last year by more than 6.7%. Read more: tinyurl.com/yfm829v8

Pleased to have secured commitments and clarity on the resurfacing of the Ormeau Road at Rosetta between the roundabout and Upper Galwally. As anyone who has been on the road in recent weeks knows, it's badly needed

Gordon Lyons has been found to have breached the ministerial code for the second time. The circumstances - racially fuelled riots across NI, families sheltering in fear - could hardly have been more serious. He should resign his office.

I don't know @NiallStanage other than following his work, but hugely proud that a journalist from our island has demonstrated fearless professional integrity in this way.

LEAVITT: Why was Renee Good unfortunately and tragically killed? REPORTER: Because an ICE agent acted recklessly and killed her unjustifiably LEAVITT: Oh, ok. So you're a biased reporters with a biased opinion. You're a left-wing hack.

This is ridiculous. The same department and minister consulted on recycling reforms *two years ago* and are now... consulting again. Places like Carryduff and Four Winds had been repeatedly promised improvements. Not so much circular economy as going round in circles.

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.

The sculpture that was stolen from outside Ormeau Road Library over two years ago is now back in place! Artist Daniela Balmaverde and I have been working to get it re-installed, and were on-site today with Libraries NI as the stonemasons put it back in its rightful place.

The Justice Minister's u-turn and mixed messaging on data breach funding isn't a trivial or light hearted matter. PSNI officers and staff deserve better. It's shambolic and unprofessional. Urgent clarification on the funding position and an apology are in order.
