Derry Sinn Féin have launched a new publicity campaign promoting the benefits

The potential benefits of Irish reunification are an opportunity to transform our economy, society and public services for the better, Sinn Féin Councillor Sandra Duffy has said.

Cllr. Duffy was commenting as Derry Sinn Féin launched a new publicity campaign promoting the benefits of a United Ireland.

“The potential benefits of Irish reunification to every single person on this island are huge,” she said.

“It is an opportunity to completely reshape our economy, our health service and our entire society for the better. We have to seize that opportunity and prepare for the change that is coming so that we maximise the benefits for this and future generations.

“The conversation about Irish Unity is already well underway in homes, workplaces, schools and communities right across this island.

“People realise that a better future is now possible and over the next 12 weeks, Derry Sinn Féin aims to aid that discussion with a special publicity campaign outlining some of the key benefits of Irish Unity.

“A United Ireland is our best chance to create better for our children. Now is the time to plan for it and I would urge everyone to get involved in that process and join the conversation.”
