Jamie Bryson is leading unionism down a ruinous dead end - Today’s Editorial from the News Letter
Lols….@JonBurrowsMLA
I’ve listened to this trope since the day and hour I entered representative politics.
Ultimately, I’m committed to peace building, reconciliation and trying to reimagine NI for the better
Good to see you’re bringing something new to the conversation…..

My immediate concern is for those who work in the Health Service and the patients reliant on its effectiveness: both need strong, sustained evidence-based leadership and are now facing a period of uncertainty and confusion.

I strongly condemn the violent assault on PSNI officers in Derry~Londonderry this morning.
One attack on a police officer is one attack too many. It has to stop.
My thoughts are with the officers affected, and I wish them a full and speedy recovery.
A police officer required stitches to his leg after he was stabbed in Derry/Londonderry last night, Wednesday 26th November. Deputy Chief Constable Bobby Singleton: “Officers… do not deserve to be assaulted for simply doing their job.” Full details: orlo.uk/teSb8

I have always condemned acts of terrorism without equivocation.
I said so explicitly in my interview on Nolan (excerpt below), but political opponents omit that key part of the interview when they selectively post.
Politicking on such a sensitive issue is, frankly, grotesque.
What @dhoneyford says….
Alliance has always been clear, we work to unite our community, not divide it.
We don’t filter policy through the constitution, but through making life better. We’ll engage in any conversation without prejudice.
But based on better outcomes for health, creating jobs, bring kids together into the same classrooms etc. I work every day to create better relationships north/south & east/west.
But if the UUP spent less time obsessed with attacking Alliance & more time delivering, people might be able to get a GP appointment!

A pipe bomb was left outside the SF Offices of Liz Kimmins MLA and Daire Hughes MP.
I try and frame my political discourse in a grace filled way.
Sadly, it is not always the case in today’s political arena.

Shocking incident but glad of no injuries.
Any information should be passed onto the PSNI.

“I’ll call it for what it is. It’s rural arson, and it needs to stop,” says @AndrewMuirNI.
The recent fires in our rural areas are devastating the environment and endangering lives.
Those intentionally setting fires in these areas must be held accountable for their actions.

"I would worry that a tragedy will happen."
South Down MLA Andy McMurray has been speaking to UTV about the weekend's fire in the Mourne Mountains which forced residents from their homes and needed more than 100 firefighters to extinguish.
Andrew McMurray retweeted
Latest spate of wildfires are having a devastating impact on the environment and wildlife, putting lives at risk, endangering homes and farms
Grossly irresponsible actions by a few are having serious destructive impacts and must stop before a tragedy occurs and people are killed
Thank you to @NIFRSOFFICIAL for sustained and significant response assisted by Police, NIEA and others in extremely challenging circumstances
I would encourage anyone with any information that could assist with the apprehension of those deliberately and maliciously setting fires to contact @PoliceServiceNI via 101 or @CrimestoppersUK via 0800 555 111

Vital care services and community organisations are the lifeblood of Northern Ireland.
That's why @SorchaEastwood's amendment seeks to protect our healthcare, childcare and community and voluntary sectors from the impacts of the government's National Insurance hike.
