Every imported question, contribution and motion, with its classification. Unflagged, uncertain and not-yet-analysed records are all included so the analysis can be checked independently.
Thank you, Madam Principal Deputy Speaker. Having read the motion and the amendment, I found that the motion contained four obvious tenets. One was the inarguable realism as it started out, and then there was the arguable perspective on some of the fallout of Brexit and the protocol. That was followed by its…
I am interested in the referendum; I am old enough to remember it. Perhaps the Member could explain to us something that has mystified me for quite some time. Who paid for the wrap-around advert in a popular morning newspaper that, as pundits will tell you, seriously influenced UK voters to leave the EU rather than to…
TikTok, indeed. In the current global context, it always strikes me as curious that we have two nationalist and separatist parties in this place whose primary objective is to achieve full Irish sovereignty over the whole of this island, yet they would enthusiastically see any new state subsumed immediately as part of…
FlaggedDecided on a second assessment.Constitutional question, Brexit, the Windsor Framework and sovereigntyCriteria met: Dog-whistle messaging.
The rigorous implementers seem to have fallen out, which I regret. Here we are. In recent weeks and months, the constructive Opposition have taken to making rather disingenuous and selective social media jibes about the finishing times of this place and regularly whinging about what is debated on the Floor. Yet, they…
Cuireann Sinn Féin fáilte roimh rannpháirtíocht an Aontais Eorpaigh agus Rialtas na Breataine le caidrimh nua a fhorbairt. Beidh muid ag fanacht leis na sonraí a socróidh siad orthu sna míonna amach romhainn agus le cad é a bheas i gceist do na Sé Chontae. Ní mór d’aon toradh fiúntach aghaidh a thabhairt ar thionchair…
I find it quite hilarious for the Alliance Party to stand here today and claim to be the party of unity when we are the party who led the peace to bring unity to this place.
I hear the Member talk about the Belfast Agreement, yet his beloved EU set aside and then shredded the Belfast Agreement when it agreed to a majority vote in the maintaining of the Windsor framework/protocol arrangements. How is that supporting the Belfast Agreement?
Listen: you want to go back that far because there was a collapse in Germany. Let us look at the period — There was a collapse in the UK that you helped to cause. We will get on to that in a wee second. Restoring the three freedoms that we have lost is fundamental to us, and we welcome the fact that the UK has finally…
I thank the Member for taking the intervention. Does he accept the figures that I have here, which show that, between 2010 and 2025, the UK's net GDP has grown more than Germany's? German GDP growth was $1,250 billion, and the UK's was $1,400 billion.
Cheers. Thank you, Mr Deputy Speaker. Alliance is a proud European party that wants Northern Ireland to rejoin the EU and have full membership at the first opportunity. We have been consistent on that, but we work to unite people and do not base policy on exclusion. Leaving the EU has been the biggest act of…
Thank you very much. I know that the Member is passionate about the EU. He and I will always have a strong disagreement about that, but will the Member agree that his wanting an EU office in Belfast in order to petition the EU to do something that he should be doing as a Member of the Legislative Assembly — that is,…
