A lot of chat around reform to Stormont institutions - I wrote about this & a potential reform package back in 2017 for @NorthernSlant - by no means full proof, but more flexible govt that maintains power sharing, with safeguards, is completely possible👇

Did you know there’s a Californian ecstatic to call NI home and likes a pint of Guinness or three? We did!
"People from NI are some of the best in the world. You've made it extremely easy and worthwhile to call HERE home."
