Right! My profile pic is the one that's been on leaflets, cos I'd like to hope that politicians can show positivity. And whilst you can be happy without smiling, it is a bit more obvious when you do.

Yes. I agree with this. And as @alizaadi.bsky.social has replied, let's hope it's not a term he continues to use.

Yes. I didn't mean to imply that any worries about the wording are wrong because I agree. Thank you x

I think what he's trying to say is that actual concerns can and should be talked about, but if they are being raised as an excuse for hate, then there is no place for that.

I realise that "legitimate concerns" has been used as a dog whistle, but I'd like to think Mothin isn't doing this here.

Nooooo

Excellent!

Join us and help. The more of us there are, the more places we could campaign in.

Honestly. Don't get me started. It just isn't sustainable. I want high quality, dense, affordable housing, not what we're currently getting.

I didn't realise that SF MPs didn't draw salaries. Thank you for this.

You can still stand. Sinn Fein MPs still get elected, get paid, just don't enter the chamber as they are abstentionists and also refuse to swear the oath.

Not all of us, but I accept it's an issue.
