Some political parties believe that it is not working well and is causing more harm than good, whilst some see it as necessary to maintain stability and protect the Good Friday Agreement. Then, some political parties are calling for changes to the protocol, and they're actively engaging with the UK government and the EU to find a solution that satisfies everyone. Navigating these complexities requires patience, compromise, and a genuine desire to find common ground. This is the only way to move forward.

On the economic front, parties are focused on boosting the local economy and creating jobs. They're exploring ways to attract investment, support local businesses, and foster innovation. It’s all about creating a stable economic environment and improving the quality of life for all residents. The plan involves infrastructure projects such as roads, railways, broadband, etc. This has the potential to boost local employment, and create more opportunities.

Social issues also remain a priority. Politicians are tackling things like healthcare, education, and social welfare, all working towards building a more inclusive and equitable society. Everyone is trying to address issues like poverty, social inequality, and access to services. They're working towards a society where everyone has the opportunity to thrive.
