In a joint letter, Sinn Fein’s Michelle O’Neill, DUP leader Sir Jeffrey Donaldson, Naomi Long of the Alliance Party, the UUP’s Doug Beattie and SDLP leader Colum Eastwood said there could be business closures and job losses without financial support. “Collectively, we should spare no effort to protect vulnerable businesses, families and communities facing this enormous and unforeseen financial pressure.”
“Clearly for the last number of days the effort has been on the immediacy of the flooding issue itself, but now very quickly minds are turning towards how they’re going to get through the weeks and months ahead. Shadow Northern Ireland secretary Hilary Benn criticised the level of support for victims of flooding in the region.
The party remains in talks with the Government to address unionist concerns at the Northern Ireland Protocol and the Windsor Framework. “More needs to be done, we’re working on that. We’ll work with the Government to deliver the support that people need, including for farmers as well.”
