- ‘The Protocol does not break up the Union. That decision can only be taken by the people of NI. If Michael Gove would like to pick up his copy of the Good Friday Agreement, and take a cursory glance through it, he would see that.’ @naomi_long on the Internal Markets Bill.
00:00 - “Whilst the UK may withdraw from these institutions the people of Northern Ireland will never withdraw the hand of friendship... “Au revoir, auf Wiedersehen, slán go fóill, goodbye for now.” @naomi_long makes her final speech to the European Parliament.

00:00 - “The DUP, bizarrely, claim there has to be explicit consent from the people of NI to stay inside parts of the EU. There was no consent from the people of NI to leave the EU in the first place. They can't have it both ways.” – @naomi_long Demand Better > allianceparty.org/join_us
00:00 - "My presence here demonstrates a changing, more shared and integrated Northern Ireland and in Alliance, we are very proud of that." @SorchaEastwood gives her first speech in Parliament and commits to public service for all in Lagan Valley.

- The idea that Alliance cannot simply be Alliance, but instead are portrayed as some sort of Trojan horse is utterly nonsensical, says @SorchaEastwood. We have a vision for the future that looks beyond the politics of fear and division and at what matters to all. Watch below 👇
