I’m not a fan of AI, but a search for ‘illegal protests attended by MLAs/ NI MPs’ gives some interesting results #belfast #ireland #drumcree

Linzi McLaren’s SDLP candidacy in South Antrim is fantastic news. Linzi was extremely kind to our family behind the scenes when we needed it most. She will be a great voice for mental health services. A superb move by the SDLP.

The best local example of ‘we don‘t need a marketing person, we have AI’ biting a business on the hoop? The sight of local car dealers trying to figure out social media ads in an obvious panic now the Chinese brands are coming for them I’m sure AI will save you lads @brendanjharkin.bsky.social

Absolutely Since we can’t get around to passing laws here they’re left with shouting for policy change…but we all know Stormont is the place where policy reform goes to die
