Contrast the DUP slogan “Making Northern Ireland work” with the reality of their Ministers actions around Casement Park & Gaelic games! The Minister must start leading & taking a pro-active approach to work through funding issues, not further dither & delay! #BuildCasementPark

🚝🚗 How can it be possible that we raise the capacity at the Belfast Grand Central Station and NOT increase the capacity of our trains for everyone to actually travel there????? Will continue to call this out and work towards a solution. #belfastcongestion #publictransport fb.watch/wnU_f0PDzg/?

I am saddened that Katherine has felt she has no choice but to resign from the ordained ministry of the Presbyterian Church in the face of continuing complaints. #FreedomOfConscience BBC News - Presbyterian church accused of singling out LGBT people www.bbc.com/news/article...

Presbyterian church accused of singling out LGBT people
The claim was made after a Presbyterian minister resigned after being investigated for attending the 2024 Pride parade in Dublin.

Motor fuel may have dropped in price, but it’s ridiculous that full savings aren’t being passed to consumers, the regulator said in July that drivers had been overcharged on fuel by £1.6bn in 2023.

If we are serious about tackling violence against women and girls, then we need to raise the bar regarding interactions between Ministers and MLAs. Aggressive interaction between men in power and female MLAs is part of a continuum of unacceptable behaviour. It starts with us. #EVAWG
