Ms Michelle Gildernew:

I came this morning from an event in Dungannon at which we discussed the absence of European Structural Funds, ESF, and the fact that 17,000 people have so far benefited from ESF money. That money has been transformative in working class communities across the board, unionist and nationalist. Brexit was a game changer for many young people. It was the conduit through which they no longer have the same hang-ups that previous generations had and they see their future within Europe and in a unified Ireland. Does Lord Alderdice share that view?
