It’s obvious whose pockets Starmer & Co are lining

Good to see these reduced, it’s still too much though www.theguardian.com/environment/...

πŸ³οΈβ€πŸŒˆπŸ³οΈβ€βš§οΈ A consultation on changing the law to ban conversion practices - the practice which attempts to change or suppress an individual’s sexual orientation or gender identity - is running until Thu 20th March. [1/2]

As recent reports have shown, the water quality of our lakes are very bad. The Executive & the Minister must do more to tackle these issues. wearetyrone.com/news/loughma...

Racists are attempting to whip up racist & anti-immigrant rhetoric with a display in Belfast on Sun 23rd March. The good people of Belfast & NI aren’t going to allow this to go unchallenged. Come out, bring friends & family to show we are anti-racist here! ✊🏻

Pretty damning www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Legend ✊🏻 #InternationalWomensDay #IWD #IWD2025

We've written a joint Statement with End Deportations Belfast for International Women's Day. 'We call on all statutory bodies to ensure that abortion healthcare is fully available and accessible to new communities, refugees and people seeking asylum.' buff.ly/KXMKl9H

Great turnout for the #InternationalWomensDay rally in Belfast today βœŠπŸ»β˜€οΈ [1/4]

Happy #InternationalWomensDay! ✊🏻 #IWD #IWD2025

With #InternationalWomensDay coming up, it’s a good time to say again that comprehensive, compulsory & standardised RSE is important if we are to reach true equality & equity

A shocking revelation on top of the previous one. People will find it difficult to accept any apology & excuses from the Cllr, even more so now. m.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/norther...

Fair play to the Save Our Acute Services group who this week delivered nearly 30,000 signatures to the Department of Health demanding a return of their emergency surgery services at South West Acute Hospital in Fermanagh. Rural people deserve better. Great community action! ✊🏻

This is a stain on Belfast and NI. We must do our best to build a truly anti-racist city & country where everyone feels safe & welcome to live. Important story by Luke Butterly / The Detail www.thedetail.tv/articles/peo...

A shameful day for Stormont. It’s well past time they brought forward an anti-poverty strategy. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

We don’t think a few jobs & a bit of investment for NI is worth lining the pockets of French shareholders & adding to the war dead

This has taken long enough. Let’s hope they actually appoint them in good time & empower them. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Those spreading lies & misinformation will not win whatever pathetic game they are trying to play

Thanks to all that came out on Saturday to our Charter Launch to hear progressive policy talk & some live music. Thanks to our panelists - Ciaran McClean, Scott Cuthbertson from The Rainbow Project & Ash Jones from the Green Party And thank you to Francis for the great music! [1/3]
