The Fleadh proves we can permanently pedestrianise more streets for everyone to enjoy. I've signed the petition calling on Infrastructure Minister Liz Kimmins to permanently pedestrianise more streets in the North - will you sign too? @actnowcampaigns.bsky.social my.actnowni.org/petitions/pe...

Hi peeps, because I seemingly hate having free time 🤣 I recently established Rainbow Connections NI - a new LGBTQ+ social group for adults in the north. We prioritise connection & strengthening sense of community in what can feel like an increasingly divided world. 🧵 More to follow in this thread.

I see Ann Widdecombe has died. When she was Home Secretary I showed her round Drake Hall womens’s prison. There was a pregnant woman on a bed in the early stages of Labour and she asked the prison officers why she wasn’t handcuffed to the bed. That’s the kind of woman she was.

Causeway Pride @causewaypride.bsky.social · 24/06/2026
Joint Statement from Causeway Pride & @mams4transni.bsky.social


Causeway Pride and Mams 4 Trans NI  are deeply disappointed by the decision to prevent Northern Ireland Civil Service staff from participating in Pride events in an official capacity.

Pride is a celebration of equality, visibility and community. It is not a political endorsement, nor does the participation of one civil servant in any way diminish the rights, beliefs or freedoms of another who chooses not to take part. Inclusion is not a zero-sum game.

This decision sends a troubling message to LGBTQIA+ staff: that their identities and communities must be kept at arm's length in order to appear "neutral". Neutrality should never mean invisibility.

It also raises an important question of consistency. If civil servants are expected to avoid participating in Pride in an official capacity, does the same principle apply to events organised by religious communities or other identity-based groups? If not, LGBTQIA+ staff are being held to a different standard.Trade unions and staff networks exist to ensure workplaces are safe, inclusive and representative. We encourage unions and staff representatives to stand with LGBTQIA+ members and challenge policies that single out one protected community for different treatment.

A civil servant does not stop being LGBTQIA+ when they put on their lanyard, just as they do not stop being a parent, a trade union member, a person of faith or a volunteer. Public service should never require people to leave fundamental parts of themselves at the door.

We stand in unwavering solidarity with every LGBTQIA+ civil servant affected by this decision and call on the Northern Ireland Civil Service to reconsider its position.

No one loses rights when LGBTQIA+ people are visible. No one is harmed when public servants celebrate the communities they belong to. Inclusion is not a finite resource, and equality is not achieved by making one group disappear.

Pride has always been an act of visibility. We will continue to stand with every LGBTQIA+ person who refuses to be told that authenticity is incompatible with public service.
