@janky_jane Early 00s in Bangor Co Down just before men’s skinny jeans were acceptable…shouted from a passing car, “YEOOOOO YOUR SISTER WANTS HER JEANS BACK!” I did buy them from the ladies section in Menarys tbf.
Ballymurphy families have stood against attempts to blacken the names of their loved ones, attempts to deny the truth and rewrite the past. Today they can stand proudly in the knowledge that their friends and family were entirely innocent of wrongdoing & the whole world knows it.

‘I never thought in terms of being a leader. I thought very simply in terms of helping people’.
Nobel Laureate and former SDLP Leader John Hume passed away last night. We all live in the Ireland he imagined - at peace and free to decide our own destiny.
Thank you, John.

When a Conservative Prime Minister who feels he’s born to rule is outclassed and put in his place by the quiet, understated decency of a woman who cares about other people and hates the injustice in our society.
Every person in our country should watch this video.
Don’t vote DUP either. I think we know what “Protecting unborn” means.
Also how can anyone objectively look at 100 years of N.Ireland and say, yep that was a success.
Too many of you have still not registered to vote. You still can and it’s so simple. Also easy to get a postal vote if you’re not sure where you’re going to be/worried about bullshit Tory ID schemes. Do it now! AND PASS IT ON!

Theresa May last week said she would be an ally to the LGBT+ community “for the rest of my life” - but last night she abstained on a vote to legalise same sex marriage in NI to give talks to restore stormont the best chance of success in the coming weeks.
Thank you to everyone who today stood up for equality in Northern Ireland - whether for same sex marriage or abortion, today we have said everyone in the UK deserves to be treated as an equal. There’s a road to go yet but today a big step forward #TheNorthISNext#LoveEquality
