Abortion rights are human rights & while the DUP can delay the lighting up of City Hall, that doesn't negate the need to still mark International Safe Abortion Day.

Garvaghy Road residents have called for independent international mediation in the Drumcree dispute. We agree: this can't be fixed by the same institutions that caused it. 1/4

Independent mediation now. Green Party Deputy Leader Lesley Veronica said: "What we have seen at Drumcree is a failure of politics, a failure of process, and most importantly, a failure to properly listen to the people who have lived with the consequences of this dispute for decades. 1/6

Lough Neagh is part of our shared home. Today we stood with others at Stormont to call for clean water and urgent action to protect one of our most important natural resources. Toxic algae cannot be allowed to become normal. 1/2

“Today, the Parades Commission allowed a restricted parade down the Garvaghy Road, first time in almost 30 years. This is not a moment for triumphalism, but responsibility. We owe the next generation a broken cycle, not a repeated one.” 1/2

People don't just fall through the cracks. Sometimes the cracks are left there on purpose. Underfunded mental health services. Poverty. Homelessness. Isolation. Discrimination. Years-long waiting lists. A benefits system that punishes disabled people for being disabled. 1/4

Paul Givan says fairness means scrapping priority for disadvantaged children in pre-school admissions. Real fairness means finishing the job first. Only 65% of children currently have a full-time pre-school place. This is not a universal system yet, whatever the Minister calls it. 1/5

£5,500. That’s how much worse off every household in Northern Ireland could be, every year, by 2040, if our water infrastructure isn’t fixed. That’s not our modelling. That’s industry itself, sounding the alarm. 1/6

Stormont’s draft AI strategy runs to 48 pages. Guess how many times it mentions a graduate jobs market that has just fallen off a cliff. 2/10

Graphic with white text on a blurred green background. It says: “Before Stormont spends public money persuading young people to embrace AI, it must publish a jobs-impact test for every public AI project — including how many entry-level roles are removed, created or changed.” Green Party NI branding and legal imprint appear at the bottom.

8,383. That’s every graduate vacancy advertised across the UK last month: down 45% in a year and the lowest number on record. Employers are already pointing to AI adoption as part of the reason. 1/10

Graphic showing the cover of Northern Ireland’s Artificial Intelligence Strategy. Large text reads: “THEY WROTE THE CONCLUSION BEFORE THEY ASKED THE QUESTION. THEN THEY TOLD YOU, OUT LOUD, THAT THEY’RE NOT INTERESTED IN YOUR ANSWER.” Green Party NI branding and legal imprint appear at the bottom.

Graphic with a dark blue and green background. Two tilted BBC-style news screenshots appear in the centre: one headline reads “Stormont suggests AI could automate public sector admin,” and the other reads “Graduate job vacancies drop by almost 50% in a year, survey suggests.” White dotted lines connect the two headlines. Text on the right says “JOIN THE DOTS.” Green Party NI branding and legal imprint appear at the bottom.

Graphic with a blurred green and blue background. Two highlighted quotations from Northern Ireland’s draft AI Strategy appear in white and lime-green text: • Page 4: “This strategy is grounded in the premise that… AI can unlock significant opportunities.” • Page 7: “Debate will inevitably persist… but the purpose of this strategy is not to pronounce on those debates.” Below the quotations, large text reads: “They made up their minds before they asked you — then told you your answer would not change it.” Green Party NI branding and legal imprint appear at the bottom, with a hand icon and number 3 indicating the third slide in a carousel.

Graphic containing four highlighted quotations from the draft AI strategy: • Page 4: AI can “create higher-quality jobs.” • Page 26: Public servants can be freed up by “automating routine public-facing tasks.” • Page 33: Workers are “at risk of AI-displacement,” particularly people already facing inequality. • Page 38: A “marketing campaign” could answer the question “why AI?” The quotes appear in white and lime-green text over a blurred green and blue background. A hand icon indicates swiping left. Green Party NI branding and legal imprint appear at the bottom.

Race hate crime in NI has hit its highest level ever recorded, and we’ve now had three summers of racist pogroms. This was avoidable. Two years ago, after the first summer of racist pogroms, the Green Party set out five things Stormont needed to do. 1/9

From today, households in GB can legally plug in solar and start saving. Northern Ireland still can’t. Assembly candidate for North Down Cllr Anthony Flynn was promised our rules would move in step with Britain, but that hasn’t happened, and renters and flat dwellers are losing £110 a year saving.

Letterhead correspondence from the Department for the Economy, dated 20 May 2026, reference COR-0278-2026, from Minister Dr Caoimhe Archibald MLA to Cllr Anthony Flynn regarding plug-in solar. The letter states the British Government has begun work to enable plug-in solar devices to be sold in Britain and Northern Ireland, that Energy Secretary Ed Miliband wrote to the Electricity Networks Association on 30 March 2026 to progress the work, and that NIE Networks has indicated the review of Engineering Recommendation G98/NI is expected to proceed in parallel with the equivalent British process and conclude on broadly similar timescales. It closes with the Minister’s signature and title.

Mal O’Hara has been chosen as the Green Party candidate for North Belfast, and he’s ready for the fight ahead. One in four children in North Belfast live in poverty. Thousands of households are homeless while homes across Ardoyne, Ballysillan and beyond sit empty, cold and falling apart. 1/2

DAERA shot 51 cattle in a field near Fivemiletown on Minister Muir’s watch, some in full public view, then said it had “no reasonable alternative.” That isn’t welfare policy. That’s damage control dressed up as compassion. 1/6
