#ILA .. senior DUP MPs scuppered the deal agreed with @sinnfeinireland in Feb 2018 which included an Irish Language Act agreed by the @DUPleader This fact has been confirmed to me at the highest level by the DUP, and by the British and Irish governments. @StephenNolan

What is remarkable @rodneyedwards is that no Belfast-based editor had snapped up Bernadette D - I found her in my interviews to be one of the sharpest minds, politically & culturally. She has a searing awareness of the fate of people down at heel.

GAA When Michaela Harte’s remains were returned from Mauritius where she was killed while honeymooning FM Peter Robinson visited the wake house. Speaking to me later he wondered how the spirit, togetherness & organisational skills of the GAA could be transmuted to his community.

I feel like screaming. What is inhibiting our leaders from literally spelling it out “ no more parks with children, no more groups of cyclists rubbing shoulders, no gangs of young people congregating on street corners and in parks.” Italy and Spain have done it!

#SOSNI …In my political reporting in Northern Ireland over the years I got to know Con. Secretaries of State, Douglas Hurd, Jim Prior, Peter Brooke & Patrick Mayhew. These were people of intellect who publicly and subterraneously worked for the good of all. That is history now.

These young people and their capacity to express themselves with such clarity and civility must scare the living day lights out of people like @BorisJohnson . It is wonderfully encouraging.

When a Conservative Prime Minister who feels he’s born to rule is outclassed and put in his place by the quiet, understated decency of a woman who cares about other people and hates the injustice in our society. Every person in our country should watch this video.

#DeathofPaddyMoloney …all patrons of traditional Irish music will lament the passing of Chieftains founder Paddy Moloney. He loved his ‘pintistle’ as he affectionately called his whistle. He was my guest for Irish TV. Charming man. ⁦ @colin_davidson ⁩ captured Paddy in paint.

Nationalists view Irish Language Act supported by Unionists as an acknowledgement by the DUP and UUP that they are equal - parity of esteem.

#Irish ..following on from Poet Michael Longley’s unequivocal support for the Irish language I repeat Presbyterian Minister TP McCaughey’s insightful response when challenged by Unionists about embracing Gaeilge - he said “I feel a fuller person because I learned it.” Mise Fosta.

Have @JimAllister TUV leader’s ‘urinator’ remarks, boosted the chances of @johnfinucane Belfast Lord Mayor winning N/Belfast by dipping into the ‘caught short’ story? We asked 100 guys “did you ever do a wee in a city centre alleyway?” Response - 100!

Sorcha, no one would be surprised if you were to win Lagan Valley next time round. People believe you. They accept you understand what poverty is & that you are carrying &sharing a major health burden in your personal life. You are one of the most talked about politicians in NI.

#Brexit ...I can’t recall since the 1981 Hunger Strike any moment here when emotions in NI’s two communities were so stirred and torn. Sinn Féin’s virtual silence merits scrutiny while the behaviour of Arlene Foster’s DUP is sowing seeds of confusion in both communities.
