There are many many more of us than you πŸ³οΈβ€βš§οΈ

Look at the camera ye fool!

πŸ³οΈβ€βš§οΈ Proud to march for trans rights in Belfast today alongside thousands of others πŸ’–

πŸ³οΈβ€βš§οΈπŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆ On IDAHOBIT we were proud to march for trans rights in Belfast.

πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆπŸ³οΈβ€βš§οΈβ€οΈ Today is International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia. When discrimination and hate against LGBTQIA+ people, particularly trans people, is on the rise here and globally it is crucial to stand against all forms of anti-LGBTQIA+ discrimination.

One month to go, stress levels are high but excitement is too! If you want to participate, or donate to us go to omaghpride.com!

πŸ’– One month to go! πŸ³οΈβ€βš§οΈπŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆπŸ₯° On Saturday 14 June, Omagh will once again open Pride season in Northern Ireland with its fifth annual parade. We've decided our theme this year is β€˜Trans Lives Matter’, and we'll be putting trans rights front and centre.

Can't stop thinking about the massive poppy in amongst the UK national flowers in what's otherwise a nice GB Labour graphic

LGBTI human rights are under attack across Europe, and the brand new #RainbowMap clearly shows it www.ilga-europe.org/press-releas...

It's clear global politics is at a significant turning point. We can either choose an open, outward looking future, or one which is increasingly closed minded. We firmly believe our future belongs in a new Ireland in Europe. @clairehanna.bsky.social

Prides are costly things to put on, we always try and get funding from as many sources as possible but since our very first year donations from individuals have helped so much to cover costs If you do have a bit of money to spare we'd really appreciate your support πŸ’– omaghpride.com/donate-here

πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆπŸ³οΈβ€βš§οΈ We're looking forward to Omagh Pride 2025, but we can't make it the best it can be without your help. πŸ’– If you have a couple of quid spare, or want to give something more substantial you can donate to us at the link in our bio or go to omaghpride.com/donate-here!

The Executive is defined by inaction, so is happy with the distraction of daily rows on signs or statues. If we want to give young people a reason not to get on a plane to Australia, we need to offer more them more than one never-ending Old Firm game.

A Yank ffs

This is going to help growth and make people's lives better. Thank you Government. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

What an interaction from the last meeting of the Northern Ireland Affairs Committee

I understand the level of panic in the community, I really do, but I beg of you please listen to those of us who have done politics before on political matters There are people on here who (potentially inadvertently) spread panic and it’s really not helpful to scare an already frightened community

Thanks to everyone who joined our action for trans rights in Enniskillen. We welcome the Chief Exec's recognition of the hurt caused but are disappointed that the policy on single-sex spaces will still be reviewed. We will stand against any attempt to undermine trans rights.

British politics is moving in a dark direction. The SDLP believes in a different path. A diverse, just and confident New Ireland that everyone can call home.

The structural shift in British politics took another step today. Those in NI who don't want to be part of a Farage UK, or even in a political system that concedes so much to him even when he isn't in power, have a choice which is ever more urgent. A new Ireland back in Europe.

Having promised an overhaul of workers rights (but not published an actual Bill) on Monday, Sinn FΓ©in tonight worked with Alliance to force an extension of Sunday opening for giant retailers, against the express wishes of workers, trade unions and small shops. And on May day...

Wishing all workers, everywhere, a very happy May Day. 🌹

Omagh Pride is class πŸ’– Come be part of it!

πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆπŸ³οΈβ€βš§οΈ Omagh Pride Parade Applications now open!! πŸ₯³πŸ₯³ Omagh Pride is BACK for its fifth year and we'd love for you or your group to join us! πŸ’– Everyone is welcome! Go to omaghpride.com/parade-applications!

The DUP and others say that we can't be trusted with more fiscal power, while simultaneously lamenting financial decisions taken in Westminster. They, and the Executive, continually seek and achieve power, yet refuse to take responsibility when it comes to financial decisions.

When her Executive colleagues have been spending over Β£220,000 on travel, it's bizarre that the First Minister can't say if she stayed in a 5 star hotel. Our public services are in ruin and it's absurd for ministers to spend public money in this way.

Stormont ministers have spent thousands on five star hotels while using lack of cash as a catch-all excuse for failure to deliver. When I asked the FM if she'd stayed in luxury hotels on public money, she claimed she didn't know. My letter to the Finance Minister on this ridiculous situation πŸ‘‡

Anyone fancy a wee trip to Omagh on June 14th? It would be brilliant to help make the 2025 Omagh Pride the best one ever!

The rights of trans people do not conflict with the rights of lesbians. It’s why polling shows that, more than any group, lesbians and bisexual women are supportive of the trans community. Our community’s liberation is bound together. #LesbianVisibilityWeek

Continuing on the tradition from the bird app, it's very cool that I share a birthday with the overthrow of fascism in Portugal and Italy 🌹✊

NI deserves public bodies that give careful consideration to a ruling like FWS, and reflect on the different equality law applicable in NI, rather than rushing to apply what they think the UKSC says because of a media frenzy about Trans people: wearetyrone.com/news/omagh-p...

Really frustrated by FODC's statement this morning. As Omagh Pride, we'll always stand with the trans community in our district. πŸ’–πŸ³οΈβ€βš§οΈ

We are dismayed and angered by Fermanagh and Omagh District Council's statement on the Supreme Court ruling. Full statement in alt text.

If any other centre-left party in Europe took such a reactionary approach to trans lives there would be uproar. But for one of the largest on the continent we hear very little @pes.eu @yesocialists.bsky.social @rainbowrosepes.bsky.social.

πŸ’– Wishing all our followers a very happy Lesbian Visibility Week! πŸ₯³

Never Labour. Never again. I don't want to see a single gay man making apologies for this shit. Notice how it's always middle class gay men.

🚦 Traffic Light Disco!! 🚦 Join Omagh Pride and in Tiger Lilly's for our traffic light disco, with guest DJ Phily Taggart! Friday 2 May 10pm £10 entry All proceeds go to Omagh Pride 2025!

Today is a good day to remember (particularly for those in Sinn Fein) that the bit in the Proclamation about "cherishing all the children of the nation equally" includes trans people, and to kindly remain "oblivious of the differences carefully fostered by an alien Government". πŸ‘ CΓ‘isc shona dΓ­obh.

Senator Mitchell hits the nail on the head. We need to inspire young people to believe they can change this place and build a future here or they'll continue to leave. It's been a political priority for me since I returned myself after 20 years away. m.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/norther...
