Thank you, Mr Speaker. Deirdre Hargey has attempted to make a blatant political point. She has done so in such a brazen way, given the hypocrisy of not only herself but her party leader in Northern Ireland and her overall party leader in standing with dissidents such as Colin Duffy and standing on a stage with a man who left Sinn Féin because he disagreed with its support for the police — a man who is unrepentant about blowing up Portadown town centre. We will not be taking any lectures from you.
