I want to extend my sincere thanks to Mark Robinson from The Irish News for taking the time to speak with me this morning. Once the article is published, I will share the link with updates.

I also want to thank Mark H Durkan MLA for calling on DFI Minister Liz Kimmins MLA to extend free public transport to disabled people here.

While I’m writing this, I want to present Sinn Féin and the Department for Infrastructure with a clear choice:

You can do the right thing—extend free public transport to disabled people—and this campaign will end. All protests will be cancelled.
Or you can remain silent—and the campaign will continue. The protests will continue. And they will continue until real, lasting change is made.

This is no longer just about policy. It’s about respect.

Citing a "lack of money" is no longer good enough. It’s an excuse—and it’s discriminatory.

And to Sinn Féin directly: with elections approaching, ask yourselves—do you really want this issue to linger and grow louder during your campaign trail?
