#Blog #GoodFridayAgreement #MoMowlam

@Cbfoley #MoMowlam may have been forgotten by the men of the #GoodFridayAgreement but she will never be forgotten by the people of #NI. We know exactly what she did for us and what she delivered us. She was and always will be the best #NorthernIreland Secretary of State we ever had. #Mo is the one that every other SoS we have had is compared too. None of them have ever come close especially the #Tory ones. #GFA25 #ItsOurAgreement

At Easter, I’m always grateful to the peacemakers for working for a better future for next generations. Mo Mowlam won’t be remembered as much as she should, but she was the catalyst for peace. An inspiration.

On the anniversary of the Good Friday Agreement, don't forget to celebrate the one the politicians seem to forget - Mo Mowlam. She may be forgotten by the big wigs in power who are male that want to take the credit, but she's not forgotten by many of the little people.

“[Mo Mowlam] connected with ordinary people. She got the trust of the paramilitaries, she went into the Maze [prison]. She had a human touch and didn’t stand on ceremony. I’ve never met a politician like her. She was instrumental in setting an ambience that was conducive to reaching agreement. I don’t think her role was recognised at the time.”—Bríd Rodgers, a founding member of the Social Democratic and Labour party who was part of the talks. #momowlam #goodfridayagreement

Listening to Radio 4 in the car yesterday evening talking about the anniversary of the #GoodFridayAgreement, I had to explain to my kids there was also a woman called #MoMowlam who was instrumental in getting the men to sit around the table…because she didn’t get a mention. And she was not alone in being a woman bringing men together to find common ground - there were many.

Former British PM Tony Blair, who’d omitted the work of his former minister Mo Mowlam in his 2018 speech marking #goodfridayagreement’s 20th anniversary, last week lauded her “liberating energy” in the peace process. “I chose Mo because I thought she was completely different…and she was, and also because she was a very clever politician,” he said.

I was reminded of this event today. An Edd China adventure with Jodie Marsh, Mo Mowlam and a motorised bed. We ended up as a double page spread in Zoo magazine 😂
