Stormont Snapshot - May 2024

// Stormont Snapshot: May 2024
The big news this month in the world of politics is less to do with Stormont and more of a focus on Westminster. Prime Minister, Rishi Sunak surprised a lot of us with the announcement of a General Election on 4, July.
In Northern Ireland we can be less engaged in a #GeneralElection because we don’t directly decide which party will be in government and who will be the next Prime Minister. But in #NorthernIreland there are 18 seats up for grabs to represent our interests at Westminster. Those MPs will influence important decision making about things like the Northern Ireland budget for public services and the benefits system.
