Alliance Castle Councillor Sam Nelson has welcomed the consultation to extend Sunday trading hours across Belfast, following Council agreement to the @allianceparty proposal last year - allianceparty.org/nelson_welcome…

Strong message at Girdwood Community Hub for International Women’s Day. Let’s end violence against women & girls #EVAWG #IWD

The way my colleague @JennaMaghie has been subjected to totally disrespectful comments by some in the DUP, whilst trying to highlight her lived experience, as she discussed Council byelaws & imagery is a disgrace. Another year, same old crap

BREAKING: The Assembly has backed our call for the Secretary of State to begin institutional reform. No single party should be able to hold Stormont to ransom. This is a historic chance to move beyond division and dysfunction, and towards politics that works for everyone.

@allianceparty Reform is needed now as much as ever. It’s past time. Need to see change.

Our institutions cannot remain stuck in 1998. Society has evolved, and our institutions need to as well. Enough is enough. Alliance's motion today is calling for Stormont to be reformed so we can end dysfunctional decision making and deliver for the people of NI.

We love Mo in our house #legend

At committee tonight, discussing a number of items, including the Assembly Rooms progress and the huge success of the Go Succeed programme to support entrepreneurship, economic growth and local business.

Absolutely delighted to help deliver capital projects to preserve our heritage and history. £700k will make a huge difference to our city, and Alliance is about delivering for our ratepayers and making Belfast City Council work.

The PSNI has become a service of last resort for people experiencing a mental health crisis. That’s why need the Health Minister to take action so anyone facing a mental health crisis gets the right support, from the right service, at the right time, says @NualaMcAllister

@newsmulg Burger Club on the Cliftonville Road is a family favourite of ours.

I'm on the hunt for some of the best burgers here, and looking for suggestions. I mean, proper burgers. There's nothing ruined more often than a burger here. It's all about the meat, the patty, and little else. Knife through it? You've lost the game Suggestions welcome

Late night buses begin tonight! N1 (for Antrim Road) – Departs from at 00:00 and 02:00 N2 (for Shore Road) – Departs at 00:00 and 02:00 N12 (for Carr’s Glen) – Departs at 01:00 Search timetables at translink.co.uk/timetables?Loc…

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.

@emma_fed_up @allianceparty @NualaMcAllister Hi Emma. I can assure you we’re not looking to inflame tensions. We’re wanting to do the hard work - looking at better ways to address tensions and focus on community relations and integration. To not do that at this time when investment is coming in would be a missed opportunity

@allianceparty @NualaMcAllister @CllrSamNel I'm not sure the harry hill method of "FIGHT" is the best idea. Unfortunately community tensions are still high in this area, taking down a wall will escalate the issue and not solve it. Maybe call on after dark and see the actual issues.

Giving division a facelift cannot be the height of our ambition, say @NualaMcAllister and @CllrSamNel. The 'peace wall' in Alexandra Park has divided the community for longer than the Berlin Wall stood, and with funding secured for redevelopment, now's the time to tear it down.

Such a busy day at committee @CllrSamNel has a motion passed on the interface barrier in Alexandra Park. My motion, seeking to ensure Cllrs attendance record aren't affected in the first 6 months after having a baby also passed.

Plenty of important decisions at committee today. Delighted my motion on removing the interface barrier in Alexandra Park was passed. Along with my colleagues @JennaMaghie’s motion on attendance records for parent’s attendance. Plenty of exciting funding decisions too.

As leader of the Alliance Party, I have written to the SoS outlining the case for urgent reform of Stormont’s power-sharing institutions in the wake of the Covid Inquiry findings. “The institutions must be reformed to stop any single party from paralysing decision-making.”

The people at Peas Park work hard to deliver a shared community space that’s committed to sustainability and the environment. They’ve had some trouble with ASB this last while but are holding an engagement event to talk about the future of the space. Show them support 🪴🫜
