As #COP30 gets going in Belém, Prince William & PM should be commended for their leadership, in contrast to the reckless climate denial of the US President, and some local politicians.
I will continue to champion our climate and the benefits that come from action. #EastAntrim

What is it about the UUP?
On Talkback (Radio Ulster) today, @williamcrawley.bsky.social interviewed @sianalliance.bsky.social about the need for politicians to provide leadership in stopping violence.
Then the local UUP MLA came on to have a pop at @naomilong.bsky.social about a prison dog.

Anti-immigrant protests organiser Mark Sinclair got pissed on the Liverpool boat last week and started filming and following female staff demanding they answer his questions. Definitely the behaviour of someone who has the safety of women foremost in his mind.

In my own constituency this summer, horrific stories have been told to me about constituents being chased out of their homes. One family who have lived here for years, owned their own home and who work in the health service were chased out by a group of thugs in the middle of the night.

I have long supported and spoken up for votes at 16 right from my days as a local Councillor, I am pleased that we in Alliance will be pressing to ensure Votes at 16 are in place for the 2027 Assembly and Council elections.

Young people deserve to have their voices heard.

Spiking is a vile and dangerous act and introducing a new standalone criminal offence is a vital step in protecting our communities.

This is a key measure in the fight to tackle violence against women and girls.

With high temperatures, the USPCA is advising dog owners to take extra care to protect the welfare of their pets.

Never leave a dog in a car on a hot day & always be careful around walking them during spells of warm weather. ☀️🚗🐕
