The Executive Michelle O& #39;Neill jointly leads still tells the public there should be no more than 10 people at a funeral. In April, she said "no one is exempt" from that funeral guidance. Today she& #39;s present with hundreds, many SF members, at top IRA man Bobby Storey& #39;s funeral. https://twitter.com/Kscott_94/status/1277909424095596551">https://twitter.com/Kscott_94...

This is the funeral advice the Executive gives to ordinary members of the public. Ms O& #39;Neill said in April: “The rules are there for a reason. Everyone needs to follow the rules. We are all being asked to do difficult things right now; we are being asked to do them to save lives”

By contrast, this was the tiny handful of mourners present at the funeral of DUP minister Edwin Poots& #39; father in April - a scene repeated hundreds of times by other members of the public over recent months because of the pandemic restrictions.

The Executive& #39;s advice (still live on its website - https://www.nidirect.gov.uk/articles/coronavirus-covid-19-guidance-bereaved-about-funeral-arrangements)">https://www.nidirect.gov.uk/articles/... is that "funeral arrangements should not be advertised" in order to avoid crowds gathering - yet multiple senior Sinn Féin politicians widely advertised the time and route of Bobby Storey& #39;s funeral.

When asked by @Tracey_utv if what happened today at Bobby Storey& #39;s huge funeral was a breach of what the Executive has asked the public to do in order to save lives, Health Minister Robin Swann says: "Yes, very clearly". He says the police must now investigate.

This image of Michelle O& #39;Neill today (posted by Lucan SF) is breathtaking in its smiling disregard for what she tells us to do to save lives. Yesterday she said mourners "should observe the public health advice". How is this any different to Dominic Cummings& #39; eyesight expedition?
