Hunting with dogs is a cruel, inhumane and outdated practice that has no place in 2026. I’m immensely proud to support my Alliance Party colleague John Blair MLA in bringing forward the Hunting With Dogs bill and seeing it progress" - Stewart Dickson MLA

As #COP30 gets going in Belém, Prince William & PM should be commended for their leadership, in contrast to the reckless climate denial of the US President, and some local politicians. I will continue to champion our climate and the benefits that come from action. #EastAntrim

In my own constituency this summer, horrific stories have been told to me about constituents being chased out of their homes. One family who have lived here for years, owned their own home and who work in the health service were chased out by a group of thugs in the middle of the night.

𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝗢𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗦𝗽𝗶𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 🍸 Spiking is a vile and dangerous act and introducing a new standalone criminal offence is a vital step in protecting our communities. This is a key measure in the fight to tackle violence against women and girls.

More Government failures. Since last July, the Government has made and continued a series of cruel moves targeting the most vulnerable in our society. It's time for Labour to deliver the change they promised at the last election.

Too many renters in NI are fighting to keep a roof over their head.🏘️ That’s why Alliance is calling for a new deal for renters and an affordable rent triple lock, to stop unaffordable rent hikes.🔒 www.allianceparty.org/new_deal_for...

As we commemorate the 80th anniversary of VE Day, we must never forget those who made the ultimate sacrifice. The most fitting tribute we can pay to them is to recommit to opposing the evils of fascism in all its forms today.

Absolutely no doubt whatsoever #EastAntrim needs a new MP. The DUP’s Sammy Wilson said he admires Trump for introducing tariffs that could cost more than 25,000 UK jobs. I and the Alliance Party will always stand up for jobs, investment and our economy across #EastAntrim.
