Unionists to mount legal challenge to NI ProtocolThe DUP and other unionists are to mount a legal challenge to the Northern Ireland protocol, challenging its 'compatibility with Act of Union 1800, the Northern Ireland Act of 1998 and the Belfast Agreement', DUP leader Arlene Foster has announced. I wouldn’t worry too much. They have it all sorted up in Derry. With intellect like this they will get rid or the ‘borer’ no problem. Unionists will try anything before democracy!

263 new cases and 4 deaths in NI as 436,143 vaccinatedAs of Thursday 18 February a total of 466,524 vaccines had been delivered to Northern Ireland, with 436,143 people receiving their first dose. These include many of the most vulnerable Imagine Northern Ireland and their government putting the republic to shame 🤣😂🤣 I wonder will Fine Geal give Sinn Fein any credit for this. They seem to want to blame them when things go wrong in NI So what's that equate to? About 1/3 of population? If we consider that the under 18's haven't been vaccinated either, that's a significant number of the 'at risk' population vaccinated. We haven't even reached 200k 😪 I hope things get ramped up here soon or we can write off 2021
