She says the word sorry but her tone and demeanour tell a very different story

As much as I enjoy Michelle O’Neill being the FM, she needs to take the L here. Not as egregious as what went on in Westminster but she knew she shouldn’t have done it.

It's as if she was involved in regular piss ups in downing street. SMH

She as with all the other ministers all the same rules for thee not for me . And a traitor to her own

Lying seems second nature to this person. It seems like shes lying here

So the scandal is not that she attends a funeral of a terrorist, but that she broke the nonsensical cv rules. Classic politics Joe

Terrorist is a loaded word. What the English did to the Irish over many years Is infinitely worse than what the IRA ever did, yet somehow they’re the only guilty party? Make it make sense

Like any politician, they will put posturing above public health because they didn’t give a damn

Unlike the British government cabinet though, she wasn't attending numerous drinking parties.. Unlike Rishi, she apologised at the inquiry. He tried every excuse in the book not to.

already shows more contrition and decency than Bojo in the first minute or so.

Optics wise, I kind of feel like she’d have been better saying look this wasn’t any funeral, it was a major and important event for republicans, I realise people would be upset because they couldn’t attend their family funerals - I accept that view but I’m not wrong for going, having been invited by the family , and just own it. I’m not saying that makes what she did right - but that seems easier to defend and less sort of slithery. Also the chair suggestion that it was hypocritical is unfair. There is no parallel at all between Boris partying, and going to a funeral of an important figure when you are essentially the leader of that cause (regardless of how people might feel about that cause).

Interesting. More than meets the eye here. So we have a loyalist barrister educated at Cambridge and a British adjudicator presiding over an inquiry involving a Sinn Fein minister regarding a former IRA members funeral. Of course there will be no bias involved. (Cough) What was the outcome again of the entire British cabinet breaking lockdown rules to have numerous drinking parties. PM Rishi refused to apologise, got a fine he never had to pay and promoted to PM by his party.

the covid inquiry is far wider than just Sinn Fein. The idea that they should get a special judge a lawyer just for them is ridiculous.

and what about Boris at least Michelle can tell the truth R.I.P. Bobby

disappointing to see such excessive contrition. this is purely an act of humilation, a speciality of the british empire and its thugs.

Is the outrage because she broke the rules or because she attended the funeral of an IRA volunteer? 🤔

Can't believe how petty the Irish and British are.

Another classic case of someone who isn't sorry for their actions, they're just sorry they got caught and are now getting lambasted for it.
