-I had a rough childhood
-I was only messing
-My mental health
-The football
-My autism
There is no end to the excuses predatory men will find and exploit

[Dr Emma Katz @DrEmmaKatz]

Being autistic is zero excuse.

Plenty of autistic men are exemplary colleagues to their female co-workers.

He isn't the victim here and he wasn't the one in danger.

It's almost 8:30pm. I finished work at 4 and it was waiting for me at home. I haven't put it down since. @David_Challen thank you for articulating what so many of us struggle to. This is a book we all need to read if we ever want to understand and intervene in coercive control

[Kerrie Flood @kerrie_flood]

@David_Challen @David_Challen I am so glad to see you retweeting this. Rhea is my little girl and just gave evidence to the committee. Both she and Astrid have been campaigning hard and have achieved the change in their own school. Now they want other girls to enjoy the same choice!

Today is the day! #equality

Legislative amendment tabled on compulsory school skirts. You may remember that two Enniskillen Primary School pupils are campaigning on this very issue motivated by the detrimental impact skirts have on their rights and health. #trousersforall #therighttocartwheel

[Liam Tunney ✍️ @ismiseliam]

🏦 Independent MLA Claire Sugden brought the amendment following a conversation with a primary school pupil.

It's important to note that less than 4%of sexual assault cases result in a guilty conviction in NI. My heart is with David Baxter's victims

Proud Mammy moment. My 11 year old Rhea and her friend Astrid are doing what they can to level the playing field for girls. Raising their voices in the name of gender equality. I'll say it again, the kids are alright

[NI Commissioner for Children and Young People @nichildcom]

A pleasure to have been part of the panel discussion. An amazing project from @FermanaghTrust @TNLComFundNI @HolywellT @RuralCommNet. Inspired by the Young Leaders of tomorrow!

[Fermanagh Trust @FermanaghTrust]

Today we celebrated the incredible impact of the Investing in Community Leadership programme — a transformative £500,000 initiative that has empowered over 2,000 leaders across the West of Northern Ireland over the past five years.

Delivered in partnership with @RuralCommNet and @HolywellT funded by @TNLComFundNI, this programme has equipped individuals with the skills, confidence and networks to lead positive change in their communities.

From accredited qualifications to youth-led philanthropy, it’s been a powerful investment in the future of community leadership.

We’re proud to have played a part in building a stronger, more resilient VCSE sector — and we’re excited to see what’s next for the changemakers we’ve been privileged to support.
