Huge congratulations to Hannah Spencer from across the Irish sea! πŸ’š

This is what happens when working class communities stand against the politics of hatred and division, we win.

Join the Greens and get involved πŸ’šπŸ’ͺ

Green party support for two chapel crematorium at roselawn approved

Green party support for two chapel crematorium at roselawn approved

I’m backing the new 2 chapel crematorium at Roselawn

Staff are doing exceptional work, but the 1960s building no longer meets the needs of today’s Belfast

Families deserve more time, more flexibility & modern facilities

Committee has approved it. Now it’s time to move forward

What do you think?

Wild how barely any time has passed since Jon Burrows was elected UUP leader, and they're already trying to outdo the DUP over who can be most cruel to Trans folks.

All that matters is the culture war, embarrassing stuff.

Speaking at a Palestine protest

Speaking at a Palestine protest

High Court has ruled the UK Government acted unlawfully & disproportionately in proscribing Palestine Action under terrorism legislation.

Terror laws must address genuine threats, not political dissent. Civil liberties & peaceful protest are core democratic protections, and Greens will defend them.

Necessary but not sufficient.

He knew. And still appointed him.

I voted in favour at the second vote, as it included getting a report back on a new potential site. Was being pragmatic and not to cut my nose off to spite my face.

I voted for the Alliance proposal first to reject it, in order to get a ready made back up ready to go. Stop covering for Sinn Fein.

Why are Councillors held to a higher standard than government Ministers?

Gordon Lyons should try to save whatever credibility he has left and resign.

As a local Councillor, if I did something as reckless as Gordon Lyons I would be held accountable by the local government commissioner for standards, and likely suspended or disqualified from my public role.

A Stormont minister though?.. absolutely nothing.

Another good showing for the Greens in the latest Lucidtalk poll, holding at 4% πŸ’ͺ

The shine has come off the Alliance Party, providing weak & ineffective government while people struggle to heat their homes & Lough Neagh lies as a sewer.

Trumps personal gestapo openly gunning civilians down in the street, then his propaganda fanatics peddle out the lies in the right-wing media.

How can any politician from Northern Ireland still support this vile regime?

Belfast is now the most congested city in the UK. We can do better.

The Ravenhill Road cycle lane consultation is a real opportunity to create safer, cleaner streets. Young people’s voices must be central to this. I’ve asked the DfI to consult with local schools.

Let's build a cleaner Belfast.

Louth councillor urges local authority chiefs to abandon β€˜X’ over Grok controversy Louth County Council has been asked to reconsider the use of social media platform β€˜X’ following the controversy over AI tool, Grok.

I raised concerns at Louth County Council about continued use of X, following serious safeguarding issues linked to its AI tool, Grok. Until this is fully reviewed, I believe we must act responsibly especially when it comes to images of children and young people.

Good to visit the newly refurbished Better Gym at Connswater.

Β£600k invested in modern facilities for East Belfast, supporting health, wellbeing and accessible community spaces.

Local investment done right!

XTwitter and Grok are enabling child sexual abuse material. Ask your local representatives and parties when they are leaving.

There's only one social media app that has led to me having to make statements to the PSNI for harassment, twice.

Good riddance to X, an absolute cesspool of far-right fascists, obsessive transphobes and nonses sexualising children.

The owner of Twitter says it's supposed to be a free speech app, but far-right/fascist ideas are the only show in town and it has ended up being a playground for nonses.

Time to go too 🫑

Sinn Fein: Defending blood sports, betraying animals

Sinn Fein: Defending blood sports, betraying animals

Sinn FΓ©in must come clean on fox hunting

They voted against banning it in the DΓ‘il, just as they have opposed a ban in the Assembly. When given the chance to end this cruelty, they choose to defend it.

You can't claim to stand for animal welfare while voting to keep bloodsports legal.

Shameful.

The Supreme Court ruling on mandatory Christian worship in NI schools is a major step forward.

Huge respect to the father and daughter who took this case.

No child should be pushed into a worldview that isn’t theirs. It’s time for modern, balanced and pluralistic RE in NI.

The greyhound racing industry here is unregulated, unaccountable and on the run because they know the public are onto them.

Where are the official stats for dogs killed and injured on the tracks in Northern Ireland? Why are the Alliance Party providing them cover?

While classrooms face cuts and children go hungry, Paul Givan jets off to Israel to tour schools in occupied territory. If you stand with apartheid, you can’t stand for education. If you side with oppression, you have no place in public office. #PaulGivanResign

I've been speaking to the media today about the tragic story of Rosie the sighthound, who had to be put to sleep last year after suffering from an anxiety-induced stroke caused by fireworks. It's long past time the regulations around fireworks were looked at again.
