Significant budget cuts in Northern Ireland, particularly in the education sector, are expected to cause, as described by officials, "devastating" impacts, including school closures, staff reductions, and reduced special needs support. The proposed 2026 budget, described as having a £250m shortfall, threatens to withdraw funding for school transport, youth services, and key educational bodies. Frontline charities offering help for mental health In Northern Ireland, where there were 290 suicides last year, will be drastically affected. These statistics are rising annually. Cuts are planned by those in the government who have met once in the last 2 years as a working group of ministers who clearly are not at ground level from this terrible perspective. THIS SORT OF GOVERNING AND ACCEPTANCES ARE CLEARLY NOT GOOD ENOUGH. Please support this protest. Stand up and be a "Voice for the People."
