Proud to speak against racism and Islamophobia today in Belfast. They won't win. Belfast says no their hate.

The Donaldson revelations go to the heart of the arrogant hypocrisy the DUP has demonstrated for decades. An in-house review isn't enough: the party must now accept they will never again be allowed to impose their will on the public while behaving with wild impunity in private.

Martin McGuinness was right: the difference in First Minister/deputy FM job titles is absurd. A vestige of unionist insecurity and pathetic top dog politics. But when I asked Michelle O'Neill if she still supported equalising the titles she wouldn't say. Why not?

A majority backed the no-confidence motion in Paul Givan He has disgraced his office but as predicted the DUP used their veto to block censure. But I'm pleased that the Assembly then backed an SDLP Opposition motion to make it easier to sanction rulebreaking ministers.

When you ask DUP and SF ministers about the status of the Casement Park, they use the exact same inane words. "We stand ready". In reality they are standing still and doing nothing. Despite extra money from Dublin and London, the project is in limbo and Gaels are being failed.

Bear with me on this. In March, Sinn Féin and the DUP blocked our efforts on Assembly reform (ie ending the collapse veto) by saying an obscure Stormont committee named AERC needed to examine it first. Today they came together to block AERC starting work on it. Shameless.

Many are hoping for positive news on Casement funding on Wednesday. But building Casement will still require the DUP not to be destructive. I pressed Emma Little-Pengelly today on whether she and her party would work positively to build a world-class stadium in West Belfast.
