👎🏻 More prominent radio spots
Greens have more MLAs & more Cllrs. Why is the BBC doing this??

A new housing development in Antrim, before anyone has moved in, covered in flags & paint.
While we appreciate expressions of culture & heritage for people & areas, unknown individuals doing this without consultation is simply territory marking.

Solidarity with Andrew Rawding, who has resigned from his Minister post in the Church of Ireland stating that the church is “structurally, culturally and socially homophobic”.

Solidarity with our Extinction Rebellion comrades who are protesting at over 100 Barclays stores today, including this one in Belfast.
Barclays is the biggest financier of fossil fuels in Europe and direct action is needed. Asking politely has done nothing. ✊🏻

So sad to see Brianna Ghey, a 16 yo girl from Warrington, has been stabbed to death after years of receiving horrific transphobic abuse. The media have a lot to answer for in whipping up hysteria & scaremongering in terms of trans people. 😔

We salute the tireless campaigning of the Donohoe family to seek justice, answers and a proper legal process for Noah and greatly welcome the news that Noah's Inquest will have a jury.
WE HAVE BEEN ALLOWED A JURY FOR NOAHS INQUEST. We are so grateful to Noahs legal team & the Coroner. We went in defeated & have left grateful beyond words. Such an unexpected victory for Noah. Emotional, exhausted & feeling able to fight on knowing the right decision was made.
