It is becoming more and more evident that Brexit ignores the needs of both UK citizens living in Europe and EU citizens living in the UK. It is only fair that the people should have a final say; we need a vote on any deal, and a chance to #ExitFromBrexit. https://t.co/gMdEd8hNtm

Here's our Breximeter from yesterday. The vast majority of people we spoke to were horrified at the thought of a no deal Brexit and all that this would do to us. It's clear that a #PeoplesVote is badly wanted in Nottingham! pic.twitter.com/GyqL0xWdWm

Mixed emotions today at Phoenix Park. I feel great sadness & shame at the hurt caused by the church. I also have a sense of hope after seeing so many people come together the last few days united behind Pope Francis’ message of building a better, more caring, generous world. pic.twitter.com/mrXY3O7kfR
