Alliance won't accept another decade of health service decline. In 2016, Professor Bengoa gave us a blueprint to fix our health service. In 2026 things have only gotten worse. That's why we've written to party leaders to sign a cross-party compact on health transformation.

In 2022, North Antrim made history by electing its first cross-community MLA. Every day @sianalliance puts hope, ambition and prosperity for all ahead of tribal politics. Next May, together we can choose hope not fear, fix our broken politics and build a shared future.

The next generation should not have to relive the traumas of the past at Drumcree. "When Pandora's box was closed, all that remained was hope. That is the challenge for this chamber today". @naomi_long

We all have a role in challenging rape myths through education, accountability & cultural change. Challenging these harmful beliefs is essential if we are to build a society where victims are heard and supported, free from shame and stigma. #RapeMythsRealHarm

Girls have won the right to wear trousers to school! 👖🎉 Young campaigners spoke up, and their persistence has paid off. This is about dignity, comfort and safety. It shouldn't have taken a campaign in 2026, but we're glad the Minister has finally listened.

This is a significant intervention from the Prime Minister. Alliance has led the campaign for Stormont reform, and momentum for change is building. Through democratic renewal, we can fix a broken system, rebuild trust and make politics work for all of us.

My immediate concern is for those who work in the Health Service and the patients reliant on its effectiveness: both need strong, sustained evidence-based leadership and are now facing a period of uncertainty and confusion. Credit to @mikenesbittni with whom I have worked well.>

Our shared spaces belong to everyone. 🚫We shouldn’t have to put up with unwanted flags in our neighbourhoods. @PaulaJaneB's Bill would ensure hateful, threatening and divisive flags are taken down, while protecting the right to fly flags for celebration and commemoration.

The Fleadh showed us what Belfast can be: streets full of people, music and community. Let’s build on that and create a better, shared city, where people are at the heart of Belfast. ✍️ Sign our petition to pedestrianise Belfast City Centre. 👇 allianceparty.org/pedestrian…

The death threat directed at Andrew Muir, and abuse targeting staff in his department, is utterly disgraceful. There must be space for open debate, but homophobia, misogyny and sectarianism have no place in our society. These reprehensible threats and acts of intimidation must be condemned by all in positions of political and civic leadership.
