It’s been a busy week this week. I have dealt with a rage of housing issues, bin collection, pushing for the removal of debris and other objects around the area and cleansing issues.
This news is very concerning indeed. My solidarity to everyone @EastBelfastGAA I know that acts of intimidation like this won’t put a stop to the fantastic work you do.

“The DUP are holding our government as hostage to force a renegotiation. It has failed. Our government should be up and working. That’s what the majority want. That is what 4 out 5 parties want.” @conormurphysf@AlexMaskeySF

✏️❌Please take a minute to complete our survey on the cost of school uniforms 👉🏼. https://t.co/ExVqPxEEBE We want to hear directly from you on how the rising cost of school uniforms has impacted on your family. We need an Assembly formed now to support all workers and families.
It was great to join the panel at West Belfast Talks back as part of @FeileBelfast.
We discussed several topics, but one clear message emerged: people are tired and frustrated with the constant blockades from one party in the assembly.
Time is up!
Great to have the Belfast Mayor @CllrRyanMurphy in Cherryvale today for the final day of Cúl Camp.
With each visit you can see both the growth of @BredaghGAC1 and their ambitious plans for the future.
Commmunity spirit at its best.
Ar aghaidh linn! 🟣⚪️
Today marks the final Ballymurphy March for Truth.
The families always knew that their loved ones, murdered by the British state, were entirely innocent & for 50 years they never gave up.
The dignity & perseverance of the families inspires all those who continue to battle for truth & justice.
Tar síos go @feilenahabhann, craic agus ceoil, siamsaíochta, bia & gníomhachtaí Ghaeilge. Anseo go 4in

Caint ar fheabhas ó Jeremy Corbyn i gColáiste Ollscoil Naomh Mhuire anocht mar pháirt de Féile an Phobail . Buíoch as a bheith ann.
An outstanding talk from @jeremycorbyn in @StMarys_Belfast tonight as part of @FeileBelfast . So grateful to be there.
This mornings Belfast UI workshop: Self-determination is required to create a new society & from there a new Republic. We have mechanisms under the GFA to exercise self-determination & to end the union if that’s what people want. That’s our generation’s gift to this generation.
Recently I was contacted by a young resident regarding the playground in Mountforde. I met with them and some of their friends to see what we could try and resolve.
I contacted the @belfastcc regarding this and thankfully equipment will be replaced and the small repairs done.
It was great to attend the Pride Community Safe Event organised by @Here_NI & The West Belfast Community Safety Fourm yesterday afternoon at St. Colmgall’s before the excellent quiz that night.
Great chatting with representatives from @TransgenderNI@TRPNI & @CaraFriendNI
From this is to this. Recently I was contacted by residents regarding the upkeep of this alleyway. I want to thank @belfastcc for coming out and tidying it up. What a fantastic job.
🏐GAA Go: The growing number of matches that are locked behind a paywall is not sustainable and is not fair.
We need to ensure that everyone across Ireland has access to the big matches. @NiallSF #GAAGO

Bhí mé sa Chultúrlann inniu fá choinne seoladh ar thuairisc Comhchoiste na Gaeilge, na Gaeltachta agus Pobal Labhartha na Gaeilge -Earnáil na Gaeilge i gCathair Bhéal Feirste. Eiseamláir ar leith.
It was a joy to recently visit the pupils and staff at Gaelscoil na Speirini in Draperstown.
They were full of enthusiasm and energy, and had plenty of great questions on the issues which are important to them, their families and the local community.
Their confidence and how they articulated their vision for a better future was tremendous, and they really did themselves, the school and their parents proud.
My priority as a First Minister for all is to lead real and progressive change, and to create maximum opportunities to ensure that all our young people can achieve their hopes and aspirations at home.
Go raibh maith agaibh for the very lovely day, I look forward to calling again soon! ❤️
