The various outrageous and ludicrous “contributions” by Unionists of all colours to the RSE debate rather demonstrate why Unionism is in the state of decline it’s in. No idea how to embrace the future. Little idea, even, how to embrace reality.

Great night engaging with bonfire builders from Belvoir & Milltown at Pizza with the Peelers! Fascinating to listen to the story of loyalist ex-prisoner Colin Halliday and the work he has done over many years now in conflict resolution and capacity building in PUL communities.

Playing petty politics for Twitter/X likes We offered an amendment that could have sent a message to the UK Gov with a united voice to support fair pay for HSC staff An Executive isn’t going to have a magic money tree if it comes back, the UK Gov need to step up

Very proud to know these young people! The comments under this article are disgusting but honestly not surprising, but these young people will not be silenced Strong, articulate, honest voices who cover the wide spectrum of Unionist views have rattled a few cages 🤷🏻‍♀️ @UYN_OFFICIAL

@nedrey82 I condemned the violence and I condemned racism, and I’ll continue to condemn it. I’ll also continue to voice genuine concerns of residents.

Great wee night at our South Belfast DUP Association Quiz Night! We may have been last but I think @Tracybelfast1 & @dleighton91 ’s team were cheating 😂 Rematch in Balmoral in the new year! (Don’t ask why we look like Smurf’s 🤷🏻‍♀️)

Hopeful that the organisers of Finaghy festival can still find a way to raise the funds needed for this fantastic community event It’s really tough being a community volunteer, the work is hard at times & never appreciated fully. Elected reps should not be making life even harder
