Neil Hannon: Support the bill and help Northern Ireland progress to a brighter, more peaceful future.

Statement from Neil Hannon:

"I have long been a supporter of integrated education in Northern Ireland. Even as a boy I found it bizarre that everyone would beg for peace and understanding between the communities while never questioning the Protestant / Catholic segregation in our education system.

So I’m delighted to voice my support for Kellie Armstrong’s Integrated Education Bill which is about to be debated in Stormont tomorrow. For a minority of MLAs to veto the bill would be a tragedy and profoundly undemocratic. Do not listen to the vested interests who claim to oppose the bill only on technical grounds. Support the bill and help Northern Ireland progress to a brighter, more peaceful future."
