Belfast City Airport wants 13,000 extra flights a year and later take‑offs to 10.30pm over east Belfast and Holywood.
If you live under the flight path, this is your chance to say no - sign the petition: https://greenpartyni.org/stop_belfast_city_airport_expansion

Children should never be driven into racist violence to clear debts or do the bidding of criminals. What we’re seeing is not “community protection”, it is child abuse, grooming and exploitation.
Ten of those arrested in Belfast last week were children. The youngest was 12. They were coerced onto the streets by adults who stayed in the shadows.

🐝 Today is International Day for Biological Diversity.
From the bogs of Fermanagh to the shores of Strangford Lough, Northern Ireland’s nature is in trouble. Our rivers are polluted, our hedgerows are shrinking, our pollinators are disappearing.
And we still don’t have an independent Environmental Protection Agency to hold anyone to account. Every other nation on these islands has one except for us.

German supermarkets sell solar panels you just plug into the wall.
In Northern Ireland in 2026, doing the same thing puts you in a legal grey area.
We’ve written to the Economy Minister urging her to quickly update the rules. Renters deserve clean, cheap energy too. ☀️
Renters in Germany can plug solar panels straight into the wall. In Northern Ireland it’s still a legal grey area in 2026. That’s not good enough. Join us and help push for change.

🟢 A new YouGov/Sky poll puts the Greens in SECOND PLACE across the UK, and the NUMBER ONE choice for every single age group under 50.
This isn’t protest voting. People are turning to the Greens because they want real answers: properly funded health services, action on poverty, and a politics that actually defends human rights.
And on climate - this is the point - it isn’t an add-on luxury. Green climate action is the plan to cut your bills, clean our air, and create secure, lasting jobs.

High Court rules UK Government ban on Palestine Action unlawful. This is a win for free speech amid public outrage on Palestine genocide. Met Police will drop enforcement pending appeal.
As Greens, we stand for human rights, rule of law, and peaceful protest against complicity in atrocities. Terrorism laws must target real threats, not dissent.

St Brigid’s Day is about more than folklore. Brigid stood for care over greed, sharing over hoarding, and sheltering the vulnerable. She treated land, water and community as sacred. Her values still feel very relevant. Brigid reminds us that strength can look like generosity, not dominance. Justice, care and respect for the natural world shaped her life. In a harsh, divided time, her example still asks something of us all.

Sinn Féin should stop dodging and tell the truth on fox hunting. Their Dáil vote yesterday exposes exactly where they stand.
Fox hunting is vile cruelty dressed up as sport. Sinn Féin wrap themselves in animal welfare language, then repeatedly vote to protect blood sports north and south.
You can’t claim compassion while defending organised violence against wildlife. That is hypocrisy.

The University of Liverpool poll shows people want real change - a fairer deal for communities and the planet, not more of the same from those in power.
A growing Green vote means standing up to inequality, tackling the cost‑of‑living crisis, protecting water, homes and nature, and putting climate justice at the heart of every decision.
Momentum is only the start.
Representation turns it into real change — and that moment is now.

The same broken politics that wrecked the NHS drove wages down, gutted housing and torched the planet. Greens would invest in warm homes, good jobs and strong public services because dignity is non-negotiable.
A Green programme for government would drag us out of this mess: decent work, affordable homes, clean air and water, and a safety net that protects people instead of padding corporate profits.

Eurovision once felt like a moment of shared humanity. Now it is a PR shield for a state committing atrocities, and the organisers know it. Letting Israel compete while Gaza is in ruins is not neutrality but complicity.
Countries withdrawing (currently Spain, Ireland, Netherlands, Slovenia) are the only ones showing moral courage. A global boycott is the only language the EBU will hear. Music cannot wash blood off anyone’s hands.

The Supreme Court has ruled that mandatory Christian worship and exclusively Christian Religious Education in NI schools are discriminatory and amount to indoctrination. RE must treat all faiths and beliefs, including non-religious worldviews, with equal respect. Children don’t inherently hold a faith; they need space, time, and education to explore the world through science, reason, and diverse beliefs.

Green councillors get stuff done. We bring forward innovative, effective solutions that deliver for people - from cleaner streets to better recycling, securing the historic Assembly Rooms, and lobbying for drug testing at festivals and events. Real leadership means action, not excuses.

@nprofile…c5n8 happy with the ferries, but it’s borderline impossible to plan a trip to say Toulouse with any degree of certainty.

🚨 This isn't about protecting women. It's about distraction.
Councillor Áine Groogan calls it like it is:
The UK Supreme Court ruling is being twisted to fuel a culture war and scapegoat trans people — instead of tackling real threats like misogyny, toxic masculinity, and austerity.
🟢 “Trans women are not a threat to women. The patriarchy is.”
The Green Party stands with our trans community. Always.

As the cost-of-living crisis deepens, poorly insulated homes and soaring energy prices are putting unbearable pressure on families. It’s time for change. By retrofitting and insulating our homes, we can slash energy bills, create thousands of jobs, and ensure everyone has a warm place to live. No more should builders cut corners or landlords dodge repairs. Every household deserves a safe, warm home. Let’s build a better future where everyone can thrive.

1️⃣ Welfare is not a luxury – it’s a lifeline. Cutting support leaves millions struggling and weakens our society. A fair system protects its most vulnerable.

Proud to join forces with United Against Racism and a powerful coalition of over 100 activist groups. Our message? Clear and unwavering:
Our housing crisis, crumbling public services, and widening inequality aren’t caused by those seeking refuge or immigrants building lives here. The real culprits? Ultra-wealthy elites and their fascist cronies treating our people and planet like disposable assets.

Today is World Water Day 2025.
But 27 years of Executive mismanagement has left our water infrastructure circling the drain:
* 100% of our rivers fail to meet ‘good’ status
* Lough Neagh, supplying 40% of our drinking water, is a toxic soup
* 19,000 homes stalled due to insufficient wastewater capacity
Decades of systemic underinvestment threaten:
* Public health: Raw sewage in Belfast Lough exceeding legal limits
* Economic growth: New housing at a 60-year low (just 5,000 in 2023)

Labour’s decision to push forward with devastating welfare cuts is a betrayal of the most vulnerable. Not even the Conservatives dared to go this far.
These cuts will disproportionately affect severely disabled people, pushing them further into poverty and despair.
The proposed changes to PIP and Universal Credit are designed to reduce the number of recipients, ignoring the harsh realities faced by those who rely on these benefits to survive.
