The Executive Michelle O'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's present with hundreds, many SF members, at top IRA man Bobby Storey's funeral. https://twitter.com/Kscott_94/status/1277909424095596551
This is the funeral advice the Executive gives to ordinary members of the public. Ms O'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' 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's advice (still live on its website - https://www.nidirect.gov.uk/articles/coronavirus-covid-19-guidance-bereaved-about-funeral-arrangements) 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's funeral.
When asked by @Tracey_utv if what happened today at Bobby Storey'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.
