RT @BelTel: 📸 Pictures: Hands embrace in stunning lawn artwork unveiled at Stormont as part of global 'chain' by @saype_artiste
RT @connieegan94: Many thanks to Women’s Policy Group for meeting with @allianceparty today. Lots of work needs to be taken forward in this mandate, too often women are left behind in policymaking.
@NIrelandUK @SorchaEastwood We aren't against it? The bill contains more than that as is unilateral action which is illegal.
If you read our manifesto, we set out that these changes need to be agreed.
Bit of info on the exciting artwork currently on display on the lawn in front of #ParliamentBuildings #Stormont.
With thanks to the artist @saype_artiste and @SwissEmbassyUK and @BelfastPhotoFes and all who attended the launch today.
@ArtsCouncilNI
RT @RapeCrisis_NI: If you, or someone you know, has experienced sexual violence our Information & Support line opens this evening between 6-8pm.
We are here to listen to you without any judgement and to support you in complete confidence.
RT @AndrewMuirNI: Rather ironic UK Government publishes legislation to tear up massive parts of NI Protocol on the day Ballymena Bus Company Wrightbus clinches multi million pound deal to sell up to 800 buses for Dublin Bus & Bus Éireann, a company and workers benefiting from protocol advantages
RT @StephenFarryMP: A few thoughts on the UK Government’s dodgy and disingenuous legal rationale for unilaterally scrapping much of the Northern Ireland Protocol, and invoking the argument of necessity based on ‘grave and imminent peril’ 1/
RT @allianceparty: "What the Government are doing is profoundly the wrong way and it'll make the job of actually reaching genuine solutions so much harder," says @Stephenfarrymp about the Protocol legislation.
RT @BrianPJRowan: Just re-reading '98, to remind myself again who shaped/supported Good Friday/Belfast Agreement. Have heard so much crap from those who waited for others to do heavy lifting. Boris sacking @JulianSmithUK after he and @simoncoveney saved Stormont tells you all you need to know.
RT @NIC_ICTU: JOINT STATEMENT
Working people must not pay the price of @10DowningStreet actions.
UK must honour int’l agreement it signed.
They need to get back around the table w/ EU & reach agreement that protects jobs, livelihoods & GFA.

RT @PaulaJaneB: Today is the beginning of #CFWeek.
As my Party's Health Spokesperson, I will do what I can to ensure those with #CysticFibrosis live a life where they are physically well, mentally well and fulfilled. @cftrust #LiftingTheLimit
RT @jak_ie: Appealing to anyone who may have information about Lisa’s whereabouts. Please do the right thing. Joanne is an incredible woman/sister/daughter who has never given up hope of finding her. Please, let her bring Lisa home. #LetsFindLisa #JusticeForLisa #BringLisaHome @letsfindlisa
@richardtgarland Key decisions in the Assembly. Parallel consent have never been required for reserved or excepted matters.
RT @StephenFarryMP: The Bill does real harm to Northern Ireland. It is not supported by majority of MLAs or business community. Immediately, it creates economic uncertainty and harms investment. If enacted, it will undermine NI’s access to SM. Makes it much harder to fix the issues with Protocol.
RT @PatriciaOLynn: Back in @niassembly today this time in my new office!
On my agenda today is:
✅ @allianceparty team meeting
✅ Meeting with @RSPBNI
✅ Reviewing @nichildcom #NeverSeenNeverHeard report
✅ Answering A-LOT of casework
✅ Prepping for NorthAntrimAlliance Friday meeting
RT @EoinTennyson: Unilateral action from UKG on the Protocol risks our unique access to the EU Single Market and flies in the face of the majority of people, businesses and elected representatives here.
I have co-signed a letter rejecting this legislation and rogue approach.
RT @h_irwin98: Great to meet with the Women's Policy Group alongside Alliance MLAs today.
A wide range of issues were covered, from women's health to a gendered approach to the cost of living crisis.
Crucially, the women's sector cannot deal with this alone - support is urgently required.
RT @PatriciaOLynn: Today my colleagues and I met with @ChildLawCentre at Stormont to discuss a range of children’s rights issues that need to be prioritised and addressed in the new Assembly mandate to close the gap in children’s rights.
@connieegan94 @PaulaJaneB @EoinTennyson @allianceparty
RT @micky_murray: Grateful to be asked to chair @BelfastPcsp for the next year.
PCSP gives members the opportunity to share info & raise issues directly w/ agencies.
PCSP also direct funding to emerging issues across our city to address issues such as ASB, hate crime, & drug related activity.
RT @SteveDonnelly95: I would like to thank @naomi_long for nominating me and @raichfer87 to serve on the Board of the Education Authority.
We both look forward to fighting the corner of students and school staff across Northern Ireland, and being constructive voices for positive change.
