Dear me - Nolan is really poor in managing this discussion. Jim Allister is always loud/borderline rude, he genuinely doesn’t appear to understand many aspects of the issue, eg has no idea what Humanists believe, doesn’t distinguish between Religious Instruction/Education. 🙄

This Covid enquiry is particularly hard on those of us who lost loved ones during COVID. Every time I see Boris Johnson on TV I’m livid, and confirmation it was badly handled won’t change anything that happened. I hope lessons have been learned - but I’m sceptical.

I’m SICK of people attacking those on benefits. I’ll say one more time. I had a partner and a beautiful family. But sadly he died. I had 4 kids by myself. I didn’t have family to help step in. I ended on benefits because I couldn’t afford childcare. My kids were 3yr, 5yr, 6yr and
