An important event in Dungannon tonight. Mid-Ulster PCSP hosted the Ending Violence against Women & Girls White Ribbon NI Awareness event. We all have the power to create change, to challenge others, and to shift society’s attitudes and behaviors towards women and girls.

Residents have raised the speed of vehicles driving into Riverbrook, Moneymore.
Children making their way to the playground are at risk from vehicles travelling too fast.
I have put a ‘Slow Down’ sign at the entrance to remind drivers to drive carefully. Hopefully this will have a positive effect.

Mary Lou talks as if her party aren’t in government in the North. So much of what she criticises the government parties for she could say about Sinn Fein the North. The hypocrisy. #primetimeleadersdebate #rteleadersdebate

Useful numbers for anyone affected by the storm.

Brilliant to be in Dublin at the weekend canvassing for our friends Paschal Donohoe & Emer Currie. Wishing both all the best of luck in the upcoming election. #GE24

2 decades talking about the creation of an Independent Environment Agency, to protect assets like Lough Neagh.

4 separate reviews (2003, 2006, 2011, 2019) into environmental governance. 3 consultations. A commitment in New Decade New Approach 2020

Today…a review. 🤷‍♀️

Stormont department pretends to spend £2.6m on cycle lane, but most of it is funding a road for cars and lorries Huge sums which Stormont claims to be spending on cycling infrastructure are instead being used to resurface a road for lorries and cars, John O’Dowd’s department has admitted.

The crumbling of Belfast’s Cathedral Quarter must be arrested. Letting such an important part of our past and present heritage become an eyesore is a tragic symbol of this region’s lack of ambition.

The SDLP’s is putting this problem, and solutions, on Stormont’s agenda.

Ivana Bacik isn’t cutting in enough. She is being over shadowed by Peadar Tóibín. She needs to push in more. #RTEUpfront

Someone needs to point out to Mary Lou that @sinnfeinireland.bsky.social have been in power in the North for 17 years. Housing- lowest number of houses built since 1960. Worst health waiting lists in Europe. Schools crumbling. But they have a magic wand for the south?? #GE24

Ten leaders was a mistake @rteone.bsky.social . So far this is a leaders debate between Simon, Micheál and Mary Lou. #GE24

Gordon Lyon’s behaviour in the Assembly Chamber today was disgraceful and disrespectful. Well done @sineadforfoyle21.bsky.social for calling this out in the Chamber.

Tribeca Belfast plans could be helped by Stormont funds - SDLP The Belfast Tribeca development area extends from the edges of Royal Avenue to St Anne's Cathedral.

Stormont infrastructure funds could be used to help take Belfast's stalled Tribeca development into partial public ownership, the SDLP has suggested.

The party will today hold a debate in the Assembly calling on ministers to explore options for developing the site.

Dissident republicans offer nothing to our society. They want to put their outdated ideology before the safety of our children.
