What next, single drum beat past Sinn Fein offices even if they’re closed? 🙄 The Bel Tel has gone to new lows this week to demonise anything Unionist or Loyalist related.

Members of a loyalist band have been filmed breaking into a rendition of The Sash just yards from the office of a Sinn Féin MLA in north Belfast. belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/politics/…

Attended the #LetWomenSpeakBelfast event today. Women of all ages, from all backgrounds, speaking up for women’s rights. Women fought hard to be allowed basic rights, those rights need to be protected.

Shocked but not surprised at the absolute nonsense Sinéad is spouting. Belfast City Centre will be buzzing today, restaurants will do a roaring trade, shops will be open and tourists visit from across the world to see the Twelfth parade. SDLP really have hit a new low this week

Everybody leaves, everything closes down , you would struggled to get a restaurant opened in Belfast on the lead up to and the couple of days after. It is a disaster for Tourism. Honestly if you can’t see this Jonathan you are living in a parallel universe. It’s sad tbh.

Shocking attempt at deflection from Chris Donnelly. If he’d like to check his facts the Orangefest event in the grounds of city hall is family friendly fun. If stilt walkers, entertainers, face painters and food stalls are in his eyes equivalent to apparent chants of “Kill your

"Orangefest is in Belfast City Hall's grounds this year." @chrisadonnelly tells @MarkCarruthers7 that those calling for a ban on @KNEECAPCEOL should consider the behaviour of other groups and organisations in Northern Ireland...

Large crowd from West Belfast have now crossed over to taunt the bonfire builders at Donegall Road. Looking forward to seeing Pat Sheehan on the ground showing leadership to diffuse the situation.

10 years ago today I lost my eldest niece in a car accident. She was only 18 and had her whole life ahead of her. I made the decision to move my family back home to Belvoir, to make the most of life and explore every opportunity that I was offered. My heart broke that day,

I was on the ground on the Donegall Road this evening speaking with the local community and trying to calm any fears and reduce tensions. The parties who took the decision to remove this bonfire today were nowhere to be seen, happy to sit at home and let others deal with the

So the Lord Mayor has deemed that I can’t speak on the debate on Dual Language Signs, even though he let other parties in to speak after I indicated, so I’ll share my points here instead 🤷🏻‍♀️ NOBODY, NOBODY, has said anyone is afraid of the Irish language. This is about democracy

Oh dear, if you’re going to do a wee video slating other parties Michael let’s get the facts right. 1. DUP did not “shut down debate”. As per the standing orders, which your party is usually very fond of following, the Lord Mayor stopped the discussion because it wasn’t

Took part in an un-notified parade? Seems to be a habit with the SDLP lately but they have the audacity to complain about a legal, notified community parade led by children in North Belfast because it was apparently intimidating. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Tonight’s protest culminated in a sit down

Joined tonight’s protest at Erskine House and up to City Hall as the people of Belfast came together to demand an end to government complicity of genocide in Gaza. It was a wall of noise 📢 We will not be silent while children are bombed and starved. 🇵🇸✊ #EndTheGenocide

The Alliance Party now claim to respect the outcome of public consultations. Yet when the people of Ards & North Down backed flying the Union flag on war memorials, Alliance voted against it. It seems their respect for democracy only applies when it suits them.

We have been talking about the Irish language since I joined BCC in 2014. I discussed it with you personally, the parties talked to each other, and 20000 people completed a public consultation. To say there has been no negotiations is patently nonsense

Wee trip down to Crossgar for my first parade of this years’ marching season tonight. I love this time of the year. The music, pageantry, tradition, heritage and culture. A time to catch up with friends and family in the bands fraternity from across Northern Ireland and beyond.
