Green Party councillor Anthony Flynn has been selected by the party to run in the 2027 Assembly election in North Down. He said the “Alliance surge” of 2022 played a part in the Greens being wiped out in the Assembly, but the party was “very confident” of winning in North Down next year.

Public transport isn't a luxury. It's how people get to work, education and healthcare. If we want stronger communities and a stronger economy, we need to stop treating buses and trains as an afterthought. 🚍🌿

Have neglected my bluesky account for a while so here's a collection of recent out of context photos 📸

Belfast is anti-fascist! 💚 #Belfast #antiracist #antifascist

While others spread fear and division, community organisations, faith groups, churches and local residents across Belfast are providing support, accommodation and relief to families in crisis. They are the unsung heroes of our communities. Thank you.

Support families impacted by the disgraceful racist attacks in Belfast last night 👇 chuffed.org/project/1854...

Support people and groups impacted by racist attacks

We are raising funds to support people who have been attacked, displaced and traumatised in racist attacks in Belfast.

The scenes from Belfast last night are sickening. Families being forced from their homes in racist pogroms. Children being led to safety. Public services coming under attack. Check in on your neighbours over the coming days, many will be feeling anxous and fearful.

Great afternoon welcoming Their Majesties King Charles III and Queen Camilla to Belfast ahead of the Fleadh Cheoil na hÉireann. Fantastic to see the city showcasing its culture, music and hospitality on such a major occasion.

Great to call into Ballyhackamore Library today to meet new branch manager Brendan Crossan and mark Mental Health Awareness Week. Libraries are vital community spaces that help tackle loneliness and isolation while bringing people together. These spaces matter now more than ever.

BREAKING: First Ever Green Mayor Win 🎉 Zoë Garbett has been elected Mayor of Hackney – huge congratulations!

The Green Party brought forward buffer zones to stop the harassment and intimidation of women and pregnant people accessing healthcare. Nobody should be targeted outside a clinic during an already vulnerable moment in their life. The courts have upheld the law and it is working as intended.

7 years ago today I was elected for the first time. A lot learned, some real wins, but nowhere near enough yet. We are still pushing for change, especially on climate and nature. Plenty left to do. Let’s crack on 💪

Greens are surging in Wales! Pob lwc i Plaid Werdd! Best of luck to @Arildher.bsky.social and colleagues in this week's Senedd election to @greenpartywales.bsky.social from Mal O'Hara and Cllr. @Anthony-Flynn.bsky.social of @GreenPartyNI.org and of course from @europeangreens.eu

Brilliant day in Cardiff campaigning with the Welsh Greens and chatting with @zackpolanski.bsky.social Real momentum ahead of the Senedd elections. Hopeful, Green change is building 💚💪

Beginning the outdoor season with bitterly cold crosswinds 🥶🏹🎯

Great turnout at our East Belfast litter pick this morning! 17 bags of rubbish collected 🚮

I've been working with local residents on a plan to turn this underused space in Ballyhackamore into a small parklet 🌳 Greener, more welcoming, and shaped by the community. Public consultation coming soon 👍

Greyhound racing in Northern Ireland has no injury or death statistics for the dogs they race. There‘s also no dedicated legislation or proper oversight from DAERA. Scotland and Wales have banned it. It’s time we did too.

Huge congratulations to Hannah Spencer from across the Irish sea! 💚 This is what happens when working class communities stand against the politics of hatred and division, we win. Join the Greens and get involved 💚💪

I’m backing the new 2 chapel crematorium at Roselawn Staff are doing exceptional work, but the 1960s building no longer meets the needs of today’s Belfast Families deserve more time, more flexibility & modern facilities Committee has approved it. Now it’s time to move forward What do you think?

Wild how barely any time has passed since Jon Burrows was elected UUP leader, and they're already trying to outdo the DUP over who can be most cruel to Trans folks. All that matters is the culture war, embarrassing stuff.

High Court has ruled the UK Government acted unlawfully & disproportionately in proscribing Palestine Action under terrorism legislation. Terror laws must address genuine threats, not political dissent. Civil liberties & peaceful protest are core democratic protections, and Greens will defend them.

Surely the last thing Northern Ireland needs is more fundamentalists knocking about.. 🥲

Necessary but not sufficient. He knew. And still appointed him. Starmer needs to go.

I voted in favour at the second vote, as it included getting a report back on a new potential site. Was being pragmatic and not to cut my nose off to spite my face. I voted for the Alliance proposal first to reject it, in order to get a ready made back up ready to go. Stop covering for Sinn Fein.

But you supported and voted for the restoration of the pitches at committee last week?

Tomorrow at Belfast City Council. The Greens will be pushing for a vote to halt this ill-judged move by Sinn Fein & the DUP We can't shut off Belfasts only venue capable of holding large outdoor events without a clear alternative Share this post and tell your local reps to vote with us 👇

As a local Councillor, if I did something as reckless as Gordon Lyons I would be held accountable by the local government commissioner for standards, and likely suspended or disqualified from my public role. A Stormont minister though?.. absolutely nothing. 1/2

Another good showing for the Greens in the latest Lucidtalk poll, holding at 4% 💪 The shine has come off the Alliance Party, providing weak & ineffective government while people struggle to heat their homes & Lough Neagh lies as a sewer.

Trumps personal gestapo openly gunning civilians down in the street, then his propaganda fanatics peddle out the lies in the right-wing media. How can any politician from Northern Ireland still support this vile regime?
