Will Andy Burham's approach to devolution in Northern Ireland engage with the Good Friday Agreement and the provision for a border poll on Irish Unity? Or will he follow the traditional Westminster approach of crisis management and short term fixes?

Andy Burnham wants a devolution revolution. But what does that mean for Northern Ireland? #AndyBurnham

Unionism’s lost decade: How a flawed decision 10 years ago precipitated a collapse for the ideology which built Northern Ireland. If the next decade sees unionism decline at the same rate as the last 10 years, then it will be down to just over 30% support.

Have just received hard copies of my book from @CambridgeUP. It's about the ordinary people who funded the Irish Catholic church between the end of the Famine and independence. It takes in social, economic, religious, emotions history and much else besides...
It was a pleasure to give a talk on my book on the O'Conor Don to a home audience in Roscommon. Thanks to Roscommon Hist & Arch Society and to Rathcroghan Visitor Centre for organising & hosting. The book is still available to buy from @FourCourtsPress 👇

Delighted to finally share I will be starting as Historian and Archives Manager with the Dublin Cemeteries Trust, based in Glasnevin Cemetery shortly. This is my favourite place in Dublin and being able to write about its history and significance in Irish history is exciting.
I've been working on this event for a while and excited to see it come to fruition. If you're interested in veganism and how it's represented on social media, sign up 👇
