1590329179689881608 | The patronising words from Edwin Poots that he would "eat grass" if he had to rather than go back into government now are enraging. Shows how little connect with the real hardships people are facing. Financial struggles are not a tactic in the real world, he should be ashamed. | 149 |
1379878174679515137 | Scary scenes in Belfast. Can see the heavy flames from my house. My son asking what's happening. We shouldn't have to lie to our kids about things being ok- we shouldn't have violence on our streets! Destroying communities, harming people and risking their future- all for what? | 86 |
1541543005903093760 | The amount of people on twitter tonight highlighting the Protocol Bill development as a "step to restoring stability in NI politics" when they themselves are causing the instability. Can think of something even better to restore stability. Reform the institutions. | 57 |
1521592236118523910 | Really struggling to watch Jeffrey being swallowed up here tonight. @naomi_long is right, the DUP made their bed when they walked away from the Executive. And hopefully the electorate will see that on Thursday. #AE22 | 45 |
1365307429651685378 | I've been working with vendors to expand the opportunities for hospitality in our parks - delighted itβs becoming a reality! if you want to run a pop up cafe or a food van in one of our parks please apply β¬οΈ https://t.co/q1LT3A6D7B | 26 |
1517093422632476672 | Together we can make history and deliver a positive, progressive future for North Belfast. On 5th May, make it happen, in North Belfast Vote McAllister 1. Vote Alliance. #TogetherWeCan #AE22 #NorthBelfast https://t.co/2v6oo0PkV4 | 24 |
1554799146120380418 | It's not surprising the DUP will not elect Speaker today. They only have respect for themselves & care little for the harm a lack of decisions is having on our people. I am an optimist & prefer solutions to drama & know that only reform will stop this nonsense in the future. | 21 |
1461074588717232129 | The personal attacks on @naomi_long tonight are outrageous. Have a problem with someone's politics? Educate yourself so you're capable of engaging. Don't want to? Then don't engage. Social media gives too much a platform to horrible people. | 20 |
1457751798165479430 | Metro services have been suspended across North Belfast from 6:30pm. Not surprising when the safety of the drivers & passengers have been at risk. It was surely known this would be a result- depriving your community of ability to connect to other parts of the city. Well done. | 19 |
1457456579041710086 | Really disturbing scenes and news coming from Newtownabbey. Drove through the area only a couple of hours beforehand. It's maddening people are coming out into darkness to cause fear and harm. And all for what exactly? It will achieve nothing. | 18 |

1628384956199194625 | I am disappointed that @PatriciaOLynn is stepping down as an MLA. But not at her, at the system which has resulted in a capable, strong woman moving away from politics. Not away yet, she's another month to get under the skin of other certain parties in North Antrim π | 99 |
1540364307531239424 | Very distressing news regarding Roe V Wade. Banning abortions does not prevent them. How many times does this have to be said? The evidence (people) over the years hasn't changed! Banning abortions does not prevent them. Just more women put at risk. #RoeVWade | 51 |

1633548485558411265 | Legislation without compassion is inhumane. My colleague @StephenFarryMP will oppose the harmful migrants crossing bill in Westminster & we will continue our work in NI to help those seeking asylum. https://t.co/9GKUblLfw4 | 42 |

1631994535122182145 | Awaiting the party leaders speech with 4 of my 16 MLA colleagues. #APNI23 https://t.co/Z4TUiHt7Kb | 18 |
1378451959766728708 | Really disturbing what's going on these past two nights. We all know where it has come from, and unionist leadership needs to learn how to calm than stoke the fire. Worried how this will end. https://t.co/bvNVpE0VSb | 17 |

1624471232048406531 | Massive thanks to the team out in Oldpark today. It's great to see everyone behind @ChrisJCShannon who's been working like he's elected since joining the North Belfast team. A stronger Alliance team in Belfast Council means stronger representation for everyone across the city. https://t.co/CnCb7KG85y | 5 |
1357351004086411266 | A constituent was refused PIP (this person has rather obvious and impacting health issues) and one of the reasons listed was "did not seem stressed on phone call." This is bloody ridiculous. What is expected of people? tears? inability to speak for themselves? @CommunitiesNI | 4 |
1453094871108100103 | Tonight I was selected to represent North Belfast in the next Assembly election. I want a better future for my two boys, for us all. I know Alliance have the ability to lead and create a more inclusive society where we live and thrive together. https://t.co/b9o8exrE9g | 3 |

1420127242458386439 | Really distressing rumours coming from Ardoyne tonight. Please please let them be untrue. Until anything is confirmed we shouldn't speculate but think, pray and support the families & community affected. | 232 |

1359075335111860226 | Still so disgusted at the racist remarks by Gregory Campbell. I am seeing lots of "Arlene Foster should act" tweets but let's face it, we know she won't. There is clearly an issue in her leadership- no upsetting the apple cart because hers appears weak. Leaders need to lead. | 212 |
