Young people may be more familiar with foreign cities because 13 years of Fine Gael’s failure in housing has led to mass emigration.

Whilst the north's subvention has been proven to be lower than some cite & subvention of regions by the centre is not uncommon; the argument that the existence of a subvention = we should endorse the status quo is bizarre. Proponents of unity have higher ambitions for this place.

This government is tired & out of touch

Simon Harris doesn’t represent change
His own colleagues have no confidence in him

It’s time for change
It’s time for a government to build homes, fix healthcare & plan for Irish Unity
It’s time for an election
