Is it hope?
🇮🇪 Ireland just elected Catherine Connolly - a fierce, independent voice backed by Greens and progressives. A victory for people over power.

Northern Ireland’s headline funding boost masks deeper problems: Labour’s budget still puts the squeeze on working people through frozen tax thresholds, while the richest and big polluters avoid paying their fair share.

The 50 richest families now control more wealth than half the UK population, while Labour refuses to tax the rich or tackle runaway inequality.
“Cost of living” is just a slogan for a government still protecting power and privilege.

So it looks like Rachel Reeves has *not* abolished or cut back the cycle to work scheme. Perhaps she has read the Treasury's own 2023 assessment of the scheme, which found that in terms of creating modal shift, and thus boosting public health, it is very, very effective.

Watch as Rachel Reeves brands Greens leader Zack Polanski a 'keen hypnotherapist'
🗣️ 'The only things getting bigger under his approach would be the deficit and the rise of inflation'

Criticise your political opponent's suggestions, refute their solutions, by all means.
There's no need for ridicule or ad hominem attacks.
Reeves' remarks have rightly backfired. Now, everyone understands @zackpolanski.bsky.social has spooked Labour (& that their comms are still a disaster).

Families left cold. Kids locked in poverty. Schools and hospitals squeezed while polluters profit. We need real transformation - fair taxes, green jobs, proper funding for public services and a future free from self-harming austerity. Not one step backward.

Safe Leave Act was a Green Party victory. It was fought for & championed by Rachel Woods when she served as the Green Party MLA for North Down, and passed in March 2022. Now watch as other Stormont parties take credit for “future implementation” whilst domestic abuse victims continue to wait.

Where’s our Safe Leave?
It’s disgraceful that a @greenpartyni.org bill passed in the last Assembly mandate has still not been introduced by the failing executive at Stormont.
The Sinn Fein Minister & her department have failed the vulnerable, who need help to escape domestic violence. Northern Ireland needs #SaveLeaveNow

Brian Smyth and the Green Party are demanding urgent action from the Irish Football Association to protect local sports. Stronger vetting and safeguarding standards are essential - fans and families deserve real leadership to defend our clubs and our community’s trust.

A staggering 4,730 children in Northern Ireland are living in temporary accommodation - a 121% rise since 2019. Childhood homelessness harms health, wellbeing, and education. Please #SeeThePerson and support efforts to help children and families facing homelessness. #HAW25

Schools should include every child, not divide them. The Supreme Court has ruled: respect all faiths & none. Hear Cllr Anthony Flynn on BBCNI Good Morning Ulster cut through the spin - why real inclusion is urgent, and Northern Ireland’s future is unapologetically diverse. #GPNI

On this Trans Day of Remembrance, we honour the lives of trans and nonbinary people lost to violence, discrimination, and despair. We stand with those who face injustice and prejudice every day.

Every child has rights - unbreakable, non-negotiable, universal. Yet too many still go unheard and unprotected. This World Children’s Day, the Green Party Northern Ireland stands firmly behind the full legal incorporation of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child.

1/ Social care in Northern Ireland is in meltdown. Care workers were promised a fair pay increase, but the government’s U-turn has destroyed that hope. Thousands are trapped on wages that can’t even cover basics, while vulnerable people lose vital support.

10,000 days of power-sharing, and what do we have to show for it?
A legacy of disappointment. Since the first sitting of the Northern Ireland Assembly in July 1998, only three of the seven Assembly terms have been completed without collapse.

Belfast city centre isn’t broken - it’s being kept that way. While empty luxury flats and derelict sites dominate, real people are shut out and green space is just a buzzword. Cllr Brian Smyth calls out the hollow “regeneration” narrative and blighting Belfast’s future.
