On the bright side #StormJocelyn highlights the achievements Astrophysicist Jocelyn Bell Burnell. In 1967, Lurgan native Bell Burnell (aged 24) was working on her Ph.D. at Cambridge when she discovered Pulsars. One of the greatest breakthroughs in the history of astrophysics.

Do people not recognise the utter hypocrisy and absurdity of this? The campaign was for Britain to be out of the EU so that the sovereignty of the UK parliament could be reasserted. And parliament exercises that sovereign power, and what happens? You cry ‘foul’

@BelTel His Party took the Assembly election votes, blocked the formation of the Assembly here and everyone in Northern Ireland is suffering from worse public services than the rest of the U.K. How exactly does voting DUP benefit Northern Ireland?

Workers in the Republic of Ireland are 40% more productive than those in Northern Ireland, an Oireachtas committee has heard. In money terms, the gap is even greater, with the Republic of Ireland generating over 50% more per capita than Northern Ireland rte.ie/news/politics/…

The Long Hall in 1962. Serving pints of porter since 1766. Its interior has remained unchanged since 1881.

They *need* to believe they’re being sabotaged because the alternative is to acknowledge their own idiocy. It doesn’t matter how ridiculous the invented enemy is, anyone clinging to the carcass of Brexit will lap it up. As true for Cabinet ministers as it is for Twitter trolls.

It's the completely unconscious nature of this cliched bigotry that is so fascinating. The idiot has no idea what he's doing either in general (the sheer laziness of the stereotypes) or in particular (Biden is teetotal).

Classic symptoms of ‘special relationship inferiority complex syndrome’ when it comes to POTUS. It’s not a state visit, he’s spending time in the Republic. No he’s not going into protracted negotiations with unionists to return to Stormont, but did you expect him to?

'I'm a unionist before I'm a democrat'? I believe Bryson has just unwittingly let the cat out of the bag. This is the guy directing DUP policy 🤦‍♂️ @bbcradioulster

Lord Heseltine: "Last week I turned 90. I'm still active in politics because of my deep resentment for the deception, lies & propaganda that were used to bring about the Brexit disaster. Those lies have deprived the next generations of their role at the heart of Europe".

If being in the United Kingdom is your thing, then Westminster doing what it likes is kind of a central part of the package deal.

I understand the anger unionists have over the NI Protocol and now the Windsor Framework. What I don’t understand, though, is why they aren’t prepared to think their way through the obvious question: why don’t successive UK governments seem all that bothered about angering them?
