It is the honour of my life to be elected Deputy Leader of Alliance. Grateful to our members for placing their trust in me and to @KateNicholl for an energising campaign. Looking forward to working alongside Naomi to build on recent successes and keep Alliance moving forward.

Everyone was sickened by the barbaric incident on Monday night. While most politicians stood together against hate and division, other politicians and malign actors from overseas chose to inflame tensions and weaponise fear. @EoinTennyson

"It has been an utterly shameful week for Northern Ireland, what we had was a series of race based pogroms." @MarkCarruthers7 asks @EoinTennyson what he thinks of the condemnation he's heard? #BBCTheView

The horrifying attack that left a man with life-altering injuries sickened us all. However, what has since ensued isn't about justice, policy or protecting communities. It's about racism and we shouldn't give it any kind of legitimacy or respectability. - @EoinTennyson

Being Lord Mayor of Belfast is a genuine privilege: it offers the opportunity to connect and celebrate with every community in our city. Intimidating or threatening any Lord Mayor is an attack, not on any political party, but on the office and the City. Completely unacceptable.

'Tommy Robinson and Elon Musk don't care about you!' @EoinTennyson pleads to the people being 'whipped up by far-right agitators' to stop the violence in what he calls 'a third summer of race-based pogroms'.

The horrific attack that left a man with life-altering injuries disturbed us all. But attacking innocent people, forcing families from their homes, damaging property and assaulting police is inexcusable and helps nobody.

If my political values were so threadbare, so lacking in any humanity, that where others see a tragic and barbaric attack, I could only see an opportunity for political point scoring as base as this, I'd be ashamed, not advertising it for all to see.

For all those who were screaming there would be public disorder if there was even one check at the border, this one is for you 😡 Sinn Fein, Alliance and SDLP open border policy laid bare.

Not only are you a liar, but you know exactly what you are doing. Rather than address my actual views, you lob a false and inflammatory accusation in the middle of a race riot, when tensions are already running dangerously high. You might as well be putting targets on our

Oh, sod off, Eoin. I’m sick to the back teeth of condescending Alliance sneers. You were all happy enough to pile on @carlalockhart at the weekend. Your party has also led the open-borders campaign in Northern Ireland. You keep scrolling through social media; I’ll do my job.

We are all reeling from the depraved and barbaric attempted murder last night. Justice will not be delivered by masked mobs, but through the courts. The wanton violence engulfing our streets tonight is shameful, deplorable and utterly unjustifiable. Terrorising innocent people,
