Horrific news coming out of Maguiresbridge this morning. All of Fermanagh will rightly be shaken by the incident but I would encourage people to refrain from speculating and simply keep those affected in their thoughts until we know more
The Labour govt have been such a disappointment, but imo the inaction regarding a genocide we are all watching in real time is unforgivable & something people will not forget. What more will it take for the UK & US to exercise some moral responsibility? bbc.co.uk/news/live/c0k7…
Just over two weeks to go! Join us at Breastival in the Park for an amazing free day of fun, celebration, exhibitors, music, food and dancing! Hope to see you there! #WorldBreastfeedingWeek

When I had my second child there was no maternity leave & I went back to work 2 weeks after giving birth & as I was breastfeeding, took my child with me. I was vocal because I believe this is wrong & puts women off entering politics. Thankfully MLAs now have maternity leave.
Why have you not been as vocal with this child as you were with the previous child about childcare? Have you attended Stormont with child as you did with the previous one? Or was the previous media flurry mearly a call for attention?

Delighted that it looks as though the Executive will agree the bid for £5m I submitted to assist the PSNI with the costs of the past week's unrest. It’s a good start but long-term investment is required.
🚨 BREAKING: First Minister says PSNI is overstretched, with Executive to propose a £5 million funding boost to tackle riots and racist attacks. ⁉️Chief Reporter @jamesgould23 asked First Minister @moneillsf and deputy First Minister @little_pengelly whether the PSNI has the…

He conducted his term with dedication, inclusivity & so much fun - what a joy it’s been to have @micky_murray as our first citizen 💛 Wishing @Tracybelfast1 a wonderful term ahead doing the best job in the world
Our team out in Lisnasharragh today, listening to residents & picking up the issues which matter to you. We believe representation means being here when you need us, not just when we need your vote 💛 Get in touch if you need our help ⬇️ [email protected]
I chair a group of interested MLAs, members of the Palestinian community & activists - one of whom is Sue Pentel who I know to be dignified, informed & driven by a deep sense of humanity. I am concerned to hear of her arrest & we are in touch with the PSNI in relation to this.
Hard to beat a community environment project! Well done Jamie for instigating this - my office was really happy to be involved & can’t wait to see the flowers in bloom! 🐝 🌺
Great to be down at Carryduff Park today with Mayor @kurtis_dickson, @KateNicholl and Carryduff Primary School for the planting of wildflower seeds. With limited green space in Castlereagh South, events like this really matter.
Dream team 💛💛💛
Talking to residents in Stranmillis this morning about our efforts to get a play park in the area. A beautiful day in our great city. #AllianceWorks
