So very saddened to learn that @NCA_LynneOwens is retiring as Director General of the NCA. Lynne has provided clear & effective leadership for the agency with a resolute focus on protecting the public. Wish Lynne all the very best for her remaining treatment & new chapter ahead.

People linked to a ‘loyalist’ terrorist group murdered this young woman and hid her body. To them & their associates I say, it’s not too late to do the right thing, take responsibility and help the family find their missing daughter/sister. #LisaDorrian

Despite the difficult conditions we all face at the moment, the Army family asks you to pause with us to remember 26-year-old Lance Corporal Brodie Gillon as she returns home today. LCpl Gillon was killed last week at Camp Taji in Iraq.

Just driven through lower east Belfast. Depressing to see rows of empty, shuttered shops and waste ground not being used for community housing or commercial use The political party that grips that problem & starts to regenerate #EastBelfast would win public respect & votes

In other circumstance there would be a continuous search for the truth about the murder of a Parliamentarian. It’s time for a Public Inquiry into the murder of Robert Bradford MP. Who carried out the murder? Who ordered it? Who planned it? Who covered it up? #JusticeForRobert

It would be great to have the issue of drugs and organised crime feature on the Programme for Government with our new Executive. A whole system approach to really tackle this threat involving all aspects of our country.

@PoliceFedforNI @SteveAikenUUP @ChiefConPSNI @PoliceServiceNI @NIPolicingBoard @naomi_long The @PoliceFedforNI Chairman spoke well this morning on @StephenNolan . Like the arrested man, Police Officers have the right to fair treatment and not to be judged without due process. Trial by media and assumption of guilt before inquiry, is a perversion of justice.
