This is me speaking AGAINST the EU Migration Pact. Sinn Féin has opposed the pact from the beginning and we will speak against it tomorrow. The EU Migration Pact is not in Ireland's interests. That is why I spoke out against it, voted against it and why we brought forward more than 50 amendments to the International Protection Bill which locked the pact in Irish law. Below is my speech during the first debate on it, two years ago, setting out why Fianna Fáil, Fine Gael and the Greens were wrong to force this through. It is wrong to hand decision making on migration over to the EU. These are decisions that are best made in Ireland so that we have a system that is fair, managed and enforced and that people can have confidence in. Tomorrow Sinn Féin will call for a special debate in the Dáil on the pact and TDs will get to vote on whether it takes place. We need transparency and accountability.

Micheál Martin calls the Save Our SNAs campaign flawed and false campaign… This campaign has just begun! Once again Micheal Martin is NOT listening - Utterly disrespectful! I was calling for Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael to immediately engage with SNAs to agree the long overdue circular on the roll of SNAs.

The future of Ireland is for the people of this island to decide, and for the people of this island alone. It is not in the right of any British Prime Minister to deny our people’s right to self-determination.

Unionist leaders want to drag us back to the past to the days of supremacy and domination. They will not succeed. There can be no unwanted orange march down the Garvaghy Road. There is no going back.

The people of the Garvaghy Road completely oppose an unwanted orange march being forced through the heart of their community. Sinn Féin stands with the community and will stay on the ground in support of local residents.

There can be no Orange march forced through the Garvaghy Road community. Today, Michelle O’Neill and I met with the Taoiseach and Tánaiste. We made clear that they must urgently press the British Prime Minister to stop this march. The people of Garvaghy Road are not second-class citizens. We will stand with them and face down every attempt to trample on their rights.

The right to decide our own futures is an exciting project. One filled with hope, ambition and opportunity. Today marks an historic moment as Sinn Féin, the SNP and Plaid Cymru come together to stand up for the interests of our nations and their right to independence. For the first time in history, three nationalist and pro-independence First Ministers now hold office. This is a powerful testament to the enormous change of the times we are living through.

The FAI still has time to do the right thing by its players, management and supporters. Ireland should not take to the pitch against Israel while its genocide against the Palestinian people continues. 🛑 Stop the game 🇵🇸

We have told the British Secretary of State plainly that he must act to stop any unwanted sectarian march being forced through the Garvaghy Road. This community has lived in peace for 28 years. That peace is not up for negotiation. We stand with the people of Garvaghy Road. We will not stand by while their right to live in peace is put at risk.

🇵🇸 All eyes on the flotilla! I just spoke to Senator Chris Andrews. The flotilla is now 45 nautical miles from Gaza and is faced by 12-14 Israeli warships. Some boats have already been intercepted. This is a moment of huge danger. The Irish government must speak out. Irish citizens and all the activists on board must be given safe passage.

Politics must start with listening. As the Dáil returns, I’ll carry the voices of workers and families into the chamber - your struggles, your experiences and your hopes for the future. So tell me: what needs to change? What do you want raised? I’m here. I’m listening. Let’s build a better future, together.

The British Secretary of State must step in and stop this unwanted march. The fear and trauma being inflicted on the Garvaghy Road community is wrong. Residents have the right to live free from sectarian harassment. 28 years of peace must be protected. No going back!
