The future of our island belongs to the people of this island, and them alone. No British Prime Minister or politician will ever stand in the way of our fundamental right to self-determination. A referendum on Irish unity is not a concession. It is the democratic right of the people of Ireland.

As First Minister, I’ve decided not to attend the White House events this year. The US President’s comments on forced expulsion of the Palestinian people of Gaza cannot be ignored. I will continue to engage with senior figures in the US for peace and economic growth. In the future, when our children and grandchildren ask us what we did while the Palestinian people endured unimaginable suffering, I will say I stood firmly on the side of humanity.

I've just left the Mater Hospital after meeting health workers from many backgrounds who are genuinely terrified for their own safety and for the safety of their families. They are appealing for those behind these attacks to stop. These health workers are the people who care for us and our loved ones when we need them most. I made sure to share with them the deep appreciation that the vast majority of people have for the work they do every single day

💚 When a Fermanagh man asks a Tyrone woman to dance at Fleadh, sure why not! 😂

Sinn Féin stands with the people of Garvaghy Road, and today I visited local residents to offer my full support and solidarity. The sectarianism and the violence visited upon the Garvaghy Road community cannot and will not be allowed to happen again. The people of Garvaghy Road have lived peacefully for 28 years, and they deserve to continue doing so. I will continue to stand with the residents and with all those in our society who want to keep moving forward.

💚 The Fleadh is the very, very best of us, an incredible celebration of Irish music, culture and heritage. Absolutely delighted to be back in Béal Feirste for the biggest ever Fleadh, with more than one million visitors already! If you’re in Belfast this weekend, enjoy yourself! 🎶💚

The overwhelming majority of people in our community are kind, caring and welcoming. Those who have carried out racist attacks do not and will never speak for people here. I visited the local community, including some of our ethnic groups, in North Belfast to offer my support.

There is no war in Gaza. It is an attempt to erase the Palestinian people from existence. It is a genocide. Starvation. Massacring civilians as they queue for food. Bombing hospitals, homes, and refugee camps. The international community must stop enabling this genocide, and impose serious and immediate sanctions on Israel.

Last night's attack in North Belfast was horrific. My thoughts are with the injured man and all those who responded at the scene. I want to recognise the bravery of members of the local community and the PSNI who put their own safety at risk in an effort to stop this vicious attack. I've been in regular contact with representatives on the ground and with the Police throughout the day, and I'll continue to offer my full support to the local community.

The latest Israeli attacks on a defenceless population in Gaza are barbaric and inhumane. World leaders can no longer turn a blind eye. The international community must unite against these acts of genocide and hold Israel accountable for its flagrant breaches of international law.

🎻 Absolutely love this! Over 1,000 young people from across Ireland gathered in St Anne’s Square for a special performance celebrating traditional Irish music as part of TradFest week, ahead of Fleadh Cheoil na hÉireann! What a week we have ahead of us! 💚 🎥 Belfast Telegraph

Meeting today with the SNP and Plaid Cymru following the historic election results. Three nationalist and pro-independence First Ministers will soon be in office for the first time ever. People are increasingly looking beyond the constraints of Westminster.

Today I met with President Biden for the first time on our visit to the U.S, and took the opportunity to urge the President to use his influence to bring about an immediate ceasefire in Gaza. The genocide of the Palestinian people must end now. I will continue to take every opportunity in the United States when meeting with political leaders to press for an immediate ceasefire, an end to the Israeli blockade on humanitarian aid and end their illegal settlements in the West Bank, and for a sovereign Palestinian state.

Over the past number of days, I have spoken with many families whose loved ones are in the Middle East. I am in ongoing contact with the Irish and British governments and I am working to support our citizens in the region. This war is reckless and irresponsible. Further escalation, including the involvement of the British government, reflects a dangerous disregard for international law. I will not be part of any briefing by the British government on their military operations. My priority is the safety and wellbeing of our citizens. I will update you as soon as there is further information.
