John Hume is dead, just 6 months after the death of that other SDLP giant, Seamus Mallon. When others turned to the IRA & violence, Hume turned to politics & throughout the Troubles espoused non-violent nationalism. Ultimately, the Good Friday Agreement was saturated in his ideas

‘I never thought in terms of being a leader. I thought very simply in terms of helping people’.
Nobel Laureate and former SDLP Leader John Hume passed away last night. We all live in Ireland he imagined – at peace and free to decide our own destiny.

Ireland’s greatest & lodestar of the peace we enjoy today.
More or less all the enduring & successful ideas about resolving the centuries-old conflict here came from the brain of John Hume.
Pluralist, internationalist, social-democratic & resolutely non-violent. RIP John Hume

There are no words that do the contribution John Hume has made to peace on our island justice. So I pay tribute to him with his own words – words teaching tolerance, respect, and inclusion. Rest in peace and thank you John

John Hume has died. Ireland, all of us, should bow our heads in respect & thanks. What an extraordinary man, peacemaker, politician, leader, civil rights campaigner, family man, Derryman, inspiration. May he rest peacefully & his legacy live on. Sincere sympathy with Pat & family.

I have no words that could possibly do this Man’s life and legacy justice. Perhaps I should just use the ones he said time and time again “ We Shall Overcome.”Thank you, John. You gave us peace, now rest in it 🕊 #JohnHume pic.twitter.com/8UH5wqq8Hs
