@BTCare @OpenreachHelp four months and counting waiting for improved connection ... lots of ‘holding’ tweets and emails but no resolution

Here are a selection of photos from Lord Stephens' swearing-in ceremony as a Supreme Court Justice yesterday. The small, socially distanced ceremony took place in Courtroom 1. Welcome to the Supreme Court Lord Stephens.

Still no proposals or resolution !

@bt_uk This is ridiculously frustrating especially as I work from home so I really hope this can be resolved

[Joe Brolly @JoeBrolly1993]

1,000,000 care workers paid less than the living wage. Clapping them is not a substitute for protecting their lives with PPE or affording them basic human dignity. The Conservatives have thrown them to the wolves but hey, they sent them a shiny badge https://t.co/9LggF9FNGT

[Michael Bready @michael_bready]

It doesn’t seem this is a problem that couldn’t be solved. If anyone can help Rachel and her family please get in touch

[Law Society of Northern Ireland @LawSociety_NI]

The Bar Library is going to be closed for the forseeable future due to the COVID-19 situation and any solicitors contacting counsel are asked to do so either electronically or by sending correspondence to home addresses which can be provided by counsel.

[Cathy Hughes @cathyhughesbl]

The @TheBarofNI is sensibly asking for an immediate two week suspension of all in-person hearings save in very exceptional circumstances. It is their considered view that this position can be reviewed after 2 weeks & updated in light circumstances at that time.

[Cathy Hughes @cathyhughesbl]

Sadly it would appear that this step has been taken far too late and that many will have been exposed to the virus in the time it took to mirror the action taken by other European states

[BBC News NI @BBCNewsNI]

Schools across Northern Ireland are expected to close to pupils immediately and to staff from Monday, Stormont sources have told the BBC:
