Heaney urges Derry public to have their say on Irish Unity

The people of Derry are being urged to take part in the local council’s consultation on Irish reunification – the first of its kind in Ireland. 

The initiative stems from a motion tabled by Sinn Féin Councillor Conor Heaney who stressed the importance of the consultation which opened today. 

Cllr. Heaney said: “My first motion on entering Council was to establish a Working Group on Irish Unity. That group has met a number of times and agreed a range of actions. 

“These include a 12 week online consultation on Irish Unity and what ratepayers in Derry and Strabane Council would like to see in a new Ireland.  

“Derry and Strabane Council is the first Council in Ireland to do this in the absence of the Irish Government establishing a proper all Ireland Citizens Assembly. 

“Therefore it’s hugely important that everyone takes this opportunity to have their say. The new Ireland is for everyone and we all have a chance to shape it so let’s begin the conversation here in Derry.”

After 13 years of Fine Gael in government, home ownership has collapsed with a staggering 40% of people in their 30’s still living in their family home.

Sinn Féin has a plan to deliver the homes that workers and families can afford. @ReadaCronin

Making childcare affordable and accessible for all families must be shared priority for everyone.

By all parties working together, we can transform childcare for children, parents, childcare workers and providers.

Excellent bilateral meeting with South African Foreign Minister Naledi Pandor.

We discussed Israel’s genocidal war against the Palestinian people. I repeated Sinn Féin’s full support for South Africa’s ICJ action & briefed the Minister on the growing momentum for Irish unity🇮🇪🇿🇦
