Happy Burns Night to all that are celebrating. The words of Robert Burns are known the world over, with his poetry helping to deepen hundreds of years of shared bonds between Scotland and Ulster. Have a great evening one and all from the Queen’s DUA Committee! 🏴
Saddened to hear of John’s passing. He was a committed elected representative in Ballymoney and a mainstay of the North Antrim DUP for decades. Our thoughts are with his family and colleagues.
We in the Queen’s Democratic Unionist Committee want to pass on our best wishes to Davy
@davyh_crfc
as he stands down from the Assembly and to thank him for his 25 years service as an MLA since the Assembly’s foundation.
Today we remember:
Today marks the first anniversary of the passing of HM Queen Elizabeth II, following an unrivalled 70-year reign. We remember her example of lifelong service and her reassurance and dependability as the embodiment of the nation in the face of rapid change.
Delighted to announce our
