Going green tonight at City Hall discussing the Belfast Net Zero Neighbourhood Framework. One of only 11 European cities taking part in the pilot & delighted it has been agreed tonight. It sets out clearly how we move towards net zero through active travel, greening and retrofit.

Delighted to agree Belfast council will provide funding on a cross departmental and cross council approach for night buses to start as soon as Nov 2025.

Will support:

- Our nighttime economy.
- Public safety.
- Environmental sustainability.

One of our 100 goals for the term.

🚨 No Place for Paramilitaries in Our Society 🚨

At tonight’s Council meeting, I proposed a motion opposing the UK and Irish Governments' flawed plan to engage with paramilitary groups.

🔹 No more control over our community
🔹 No more crime and intimidation
🔹 No more legitimacy given to these groups

Very sad to hear of Michael Longley’s passing. We are blessed with many great poets in Ireland and he is one of the greatest.

I managed to meet him just the once and he came across very warm and friendly.

Many great poems but I feel this one has been with me my whole adult life.
