Great question for the Prime Minister from Lagan Valley MP Sorcha Eastwood

Belfast City Council: Challenge over proposed Irish language policy dismissed The new policy aims to promote the use of Irish in public life, including the usage of bilingual signage.

Good to see this nonsense challenge to progress for the Irish language dismissed.

A graphic showing the top half of Keir Starmer’s face and text saying: The Prime Minister of the United Kingdom KEIR STARMER IS A LIAR

He lied to become Labour leader. He lied to become Prime Minister. And he’s lied since becoming Prime Minister. You cannot believe a thing he says.

The world is waking up to the fact that we should legalise & regulate weed. It’s happening in other parts of the world. We should act now to do the same. 🌿

Ignoring the faults of “our side” while criticising the “other side” won’t get us anywhere in this post conflict society

SONI tell Derry council data centre policy would be welcome if there was ‘large scale influx’ in future System Operator for Northern Ireland (SONI) representatives have told local councillors in Derry that a government policy on data centres would be welcome if there was a 'large scale influx' of applications at some point in the future.

Councils need to setup policy positions to halt the expansion of further data centres considering their high energy consumption & land use

Tweet from Gerry Carroll @GerryCarrolIPBP At least 89 murdered. 700+ injured. 100+ airstrikes in just 10 minutes. That's what Israel has perpetrated in Lebanon, today. This is after the announcement of what was supposed to be an international ceasefire. A terrorist regime, made and backed to the hilt by the West.

Correct Gerry. Israel is a terrorist state that needs stopped.

A silhouette of Trump and text that says Donald Trump is threatening genocidal warfare on a nation of 92 million: "A WHOLE CIVILIZATION WILL DIE TONIGHT" AMERICA MUST INVOKE THE 25th AMENDMENT which would allow for the lawful & democratic removal of the President

This is just thuggish behaviour

NI becomes first part of the UK to offer paid miscarriage leave Northern Ireland becomes first part of UK to bring in legal entitlement for parents affected by miscarriage at any stage of a pregnancy to have paid leave.
