Text

I welcome the decision not to go to the White House this St Patrick's Day, and I pay tribute to all the activists who put pressure on Sinn Féin and other parties not to go. Why is the First Minister allowing the deputy First Minister to go to the White House this St Paddy's Day, and will she join the calls to say that the Taoiseach and the Tánaiste should not go to the White House this Paddy's Day?
