Today we published an assessment of manifesto pledges on Irish Unity made ahead of next week’s general election. The Commission wrote to leaders earlier this month asking them to make a clear commitment to unity as an objective of government. newirelandcommission.com/wp-content/upl…

The broad base of commitments and ideas produced in manifestos ahead of next week’s election is a good indication that parties are thinking seriously about how government can meaningfully advance unification. We are committed to convening those big ideas. irishnews.com/news/politics/…

We were delighted to host a conversation with @ColumEastwood, Leo Varadkar and young people in Derry a few weeks ago to hear their ideas about the future of our island. We’re about convening the ideas for change that will unite people and communities across Ireland.

The future we’re working to build is based on better public services, a more open economy, more opportunities for the next generation to make a life for themselves here. That’s the prize of a New Ireland for me.

It’s not Irish Unity OR better health services. It’s not Irish Unity OR a better economy. We believe in change because we believe we can deliver better public services, a more prosperous society and more opportunities for everyone in a new Ireland.

Writing in today’s The Irish News, Colum Eastwood says that fear of violence is one of the biggest barriers to unity. “I will meet anyone willing to transition from violent to democratic struggle. To putting hope for the future above grievance of the past.” irishnews.com/news/politics/…

‘It is offensive to say to my generation & others that we should be satisfied with peace but be denied a decent economy, better jobs, public services & opportunities because we have not achieved reconciliation’ @ColumEastwood writing for the The Irish Times irishtimes.com/politics/2025/…
