His remarks came as MLAs met during a recalled sitting of the Assembly in another doomed attempt to restore the Executive
Ireland's deputy premier has said it would be a "great shame" if Stormont powersharing is not restored in time to mark the 25th anniversary of the Good Friday Agreement next Easter.
The DUP is blocking the functioning of the powersharing institutions in Belfast in protest at the protocol. The DUP has been urged to drop its boycott of the devolution to help deliver energy support payments to people in Northern Ireland struggling to deal with the cost-of-living crisis. "Without an Assembly functioning and without an Executive, there is nobody who can legitimately say they speak for Northern Ireland. The parties and party leaders can only say at the moment that they speak for their parties."
