That's why I'm taking steps to criminalise sexually explicit deepfakes.

We want to hear from private renters in Northern Ireland.
Earlier this year Housing Rights launched the “The Private Rental Affordability” Survey to learn more about renter’s experience in Northern Ireland as the cost of living rises.

Had a great time with @connieegan yesterday visiting Bangor Academy’s Law and Politics Society. It’s always a pleasure to get to sit down with pupils to discuss politics, justice or Alliance, especially when they have as interesting questions as this group!

Over 5,300 people in Northern Ireland live with MS, but the symptoms are different for everyone and are often invisible. Having #MSConversations isn’t always easy but they are important and opening up can be empowering.
