@dryan_EDC @fintancox You don't need to act on hatred for hatred to exist.
@SPENCE_JOHN @G99____ @nadhimzahawi @hmtreasury Unsurprisingly, I also think we shouldn't have free prescriptions either. I'd pay for mine if it freed up more money to invest in health services for those more in need.
As I said, the ship has sailed on that opportunity.
@JamesDe56380997 @FIONADONOHOE2 That is simply untrue. Of course I care, James. I want Fiona to know the truth of what happened to her son in his final hours.
I simply cannot risk jeopardising the inquest and any potential future prosecution by commenting on/involving myself in a live case.
@macmon1969 You do realise I'm one of the effigies on that monstrosity?
So what exactly is your point?
RT @ShellKell00: Delighted to have secured agreement for a number of alleygates to be installed in Titanic DEA following the @allianceparty proposal for £500k funding across Belfast.
Pleased to work with other parties to deliver for those areas most in need.
RT @CllrMichaelLong: When Alliance successfully proposed £500k for a new phase of alleygates across the city, the aim was to make practical improvements to the lives of local people.
Today delighted to agree alleygates at Rosetta as well as at Rainbow Alley off the Cregagh Road @EricHanvey2
RT @AndrewMuirNI: Sectarianism is a poison which has infected our society
Real leadership which confronts hard issues is key to eradication, breaking us from cycle of intolerance and hate
Some of the whataboutery on Social Media rather than simple condemnation is really depressing
The last few months have been an exhausting spectacle of hatred, bigotry and of poking each other in the eye.
Whether you aspire to a united Ireland or remaining in the United Kingdom, building a united community is fundamental to a better future.
This is not how to build it.
RT @StephenFarryMP: Appalling. Yet more manifestations of sectarianism.
This needs to be called out universally.
RT @allianceparty: "25 years on from the Good Friday Agreement, I think we have to have the sober lesson that we simply as society haven't done enough, in terms of reconciliation and building integration," says @StephenFarryMP on the spate of sectarian incidents over the summer.
RT @NewtonEmerson: Every year the DUP and Sinn Fein stitch up a deal for Twelfth and Feile funding, then spend all summer complaining about each other's purchases.

@j_nidhaltuin Says who? Certainly not me if you took 5 seconds to look at my feed.
RT @PBNINews: Meet Kerri O’Neill, Area Manager, Intensive Supervision Unit, North Antrim & Mid Ulster.
Kerri said: “I feel very humbled & honoured to be part of the ISU family & to work for an organisation that works tirelessly to make our communities safer.”
#ChangingLives #MeetTheStaff
Always in our thoughts.
RT @SteveDonnelly95: Our darkest day; 24 years ago when in 29 of our neighbours, friends & family we lost all they were, all they could have been and all they should have been.
Their memory drives us. The strength and dignity of the Omagh families shows who we are at our best. We remember with love.

@EBLoyalist1912 Yep - pretty disgraceful. One if my colleagues has commented on this last night.
@ANNAOHara05 @j_oconnor37 @BT19692 @allianceparty That is neither true nor fair. Were I to involve myself in a live investigation by attending the rally or commenting, I could jeopardise the inquest, any potential future criminal prosecution and risk contempt of court. That would not help the family get the truth they deserve.
@LisaHar68665209 @Columbanus13 @BT19692 @Zoeyylouuise0x @allianceparty My job is changing legislation and policy. Issues before the courts, police investigations and prosecutions are specifucally not my job: I can't comment on them.
There has to be clear separation between my role and operational matters which should have no political involvement.
@steviemcc020 I don't really care to much about the views of the group. I object to a public mural of a burning landrover.
One people see by choice, the other normalises violence.
@garethcmurray @mairiac31 @RichDDonaldson Let's not. Let's just say you overreached saying I was "happy" to see 3-8 year olds subjected to indecent exposure. That is both factually incorrect and malicious. The longer you leave it, or defend it, the worse it gets.
So let's agree you need to apologise and retract.
@GalloperT @steviemcc020 Sometimes it is.
