@translink Going to interesting journey home as we have a short 3 carriage train for 4:10pm belfast to Derry train. It’s almost full before leaving Grand Central

@Translink_NI 16-38 train to Grand-central from Derry is delayed at Ballymoney.

[gordon mcnair @gormcn]

@Translink_NI Another day when the 4:10 train for Derry is a small three carriage one. Small train for a peak time service - it will be full before it leaves Grand central. Great planning Translink

[gordon mcnair @gormcn]

@Translink_NI Surprised that Translink thought that a small train would be okay for a peak time to Derry

[gordon mcnair @gormcn]

@Translink_NI shocking overcrowding on the 16:10 train to Derry, can’t get everyone on at Lanynon

@MarkYoung23 @sianalliance Well said Mark - another quote below from a really good book.

Remembering is not enough, if it simply hardens hate. Sometimes the hating has to stop.

[Archbishop of Canterbury @ArchbishopSarah]

Alleluia, Christ is risen!

Throughout the world, these words will resonate in many languages, from churches to homes to makeshift shelters and refugee camps.

‘Christ is risen’ proclaims that whatever the circumstances of our world today, God is ever transforming it, reshaping it, and that the shape of things to come will be infinitely more glorious than anything we know right now.

On this Easter Day, we are filled with joy at what God brings, yet we remember all those for whom joy is hard won, and overshadowed by the realities of war, conflict and death. We remember that to proclaim the Christ who died and rose again is to proclaim a radically different reality that challenges all the powers of this world, and all the forces that work for death instead of life. And so today, in solidarity with all for whom this day is difficult, we proclaim:

Christ is risen!

“‘Why do you look for the living among the dead? He is not here, but has risen. Remember how he told you, while he was still in Galilee, that the Son of Man must be handed over to sinners, and be crucified, and on the third day rise again.’” — Luke 24:5-7

.@naomi_long "I am weary of successive governments telling us privately that we have won the intellectual argument on reform. This isn’t an intellectual debate. Our institutions have failed to operate for five of the last seven years." #APNI24

[Jon Tonge @JonTonge]

“Our sitting outside government wouldn’t accelerate reform of dysfunctional institutions”. Alliance leader Naomi Long justifies her party’s places in the N. Ireland Exec rather than heading the Opposition. Argues no party’s departure should be allowed to collapse things #APNI24

[gordon mcnair @gormcn]

At alliance party conference #APNI24 fantastic to see it packed out, standing room only. Such positivity today

[BBC News NI @BBCNewsNI]

At the @AllianceParty conference, @naomi_long is expected to say @chhcalling must do "heavy lifting" to reform Stormont's power-sharing institutions or he will carry the blame for future collapse https://t.co/sx9nB6aljp
