“This constitutional context isn’t working. It doesn’t work for young nationalists in Derry. It doesn’t work for young unionists in this city. It’s not reconciliation OR unity. It’s reconciliation AND unity. And better public services for everyone who lives here.”

‘I used to think Scottish Independence would come first, before unity. I don’t think that’s the case anymore. The impact of Brexit, the fundamental changes to our society have completely changed the calculation.’

The future we’re working to build is based on better public services, a more open economy, more opportunities for the next generation to make a life for themselves here.
That’s the prize of a New Ireland for me.

As one of Ireland’s most compelling and dynamic political voices, Colum Eastwood, MP for Foyle and former leader in @sdlplive, will dive into what lies ahead for Ireland, the diaspora’s role, and the path to a united future.

We’re relentlessly focussed on building the case for a truly New and United Ireland.
We were promised so much more than division and inequality. We deserve so much more. We can create a new future, together.

The voices of young people must always be front and centre in the conversation about the future of this island.

Fantastic to hear from Derry’s young people today on what their version of a Shared Future and a genuinely New Ireland might look like.
