Can’t believe we have to state this again on Human Rights Day, but if Sinn Fein and Alliance are listening - trans rights are human rights.

Everyone deserves dignity, equality, and freedom. Human rights are universal — no exceptions.

For @greenpartyni.bsky.social, human rights go beyond borders:

🚨 Biodiversity in Northern Ireland is plummeting:

- 12% of species face extinction.
- Farmland birds: ⬇️ 43% since 1996.
- Flowering plants: ⬇️ 14% since 1970.
- Pollinators: ⬇️ 18%.

Ranked 12th WORST GLOBALLY for biodiversity loss, it’s time to demand action. Nature can’t wait.

🏘️ We’re fighting for communities that put people first. Planning should prioritise affordable housing, green spaces, and cleaner neighbourhoods—not developers’ bottom lines. It’s time to make local needs the heart of every decision. 🌍

Cleaner air, safer streets, & healthier lives are within reach if we prioritise sustainable transport. By funding public transport instead of pollution, we can reduce costs, connect communities, & create greener future. Sustainable travel isn’t just good for the planet—it saves lives and money too!

Healthcare is a right, not a privilege. Green Party NI opposes privatisation of the NHS. We envision a system that’s free at the point of use, publicly funded, and accessible to all. The NHS should serve people, not profits. Everyone deserves high-quality care.
