Updating the RSE that is provided by all schools is well overdue. We need standardised, inclusive & evidence based education taught around relationships and sexuality.
The launch of a new relationship and sexuality education (RSE) programme for Catholic primary schools here has highlighted the pressing need for standardised RSE across Northern Ireland, Alliance MLA @NualaMcAllister has said.

Most of us (not DUP or TUV) are at work, and wanting to do the job.
PM can expect a tough message from us that NI is not a pawn for internal Conservative politics.

"While this is a sad day for Northern Ireland, it is a shameful day for the DUP"

This is why we press the issue of reform to both UK & Irish gov's this week. And we will continue to do so, even if an Executive is established we must ensure the ability to hold it to ransom by one party is removed.
Well, today was exciting. First time seeing all of our new MLAs together, felt great being part of a strong team. Looking forward to working with this lot to deliver for everyone. And with a stable Executive, we can achieve so much.
Out this morning after a busy two days doing some media.
Everyone wants to know- will there be an Executive?! One thing that's for sure is the people voted overwhelmingly for a restored Executive that delivers. That is what Alliance will do.

Finn raging it was so quick & why it took months for all that. Huffed leaving the polling station as he couldn't stay.
Art raging voting was so boring and so happy to leave 😂
Can't win them all.
Anyway- Vote McAllister 1 in North Belfast 😊

🗳 Election Day!! 🗳
Grateful for my family, at home & in Alliance who have made this campaign possible. Thousands of doors knocked, ridiculous daily steps, sticking, labelling, addressing- you name it they did. Thankful for each and every one of them.
Now over to you, voters.
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.

This is why @allianceparty have committed to a childcare strategy & fully costing childcare in order so we can implement a universal affordable scheme.
One which is flexible for parents, paid to provider and most importantly, is child centred.
Childcare thread 🧵👇
With the election next week, we've heard a lot about a 30 hr childcare offer for NI *but* important to recognise that the 30 hr offer isn’t working adequately in other parts of the UK for parents or providers...
I have a very worried Finn at home who cannot sleep worrying for all the animals on the cavehill.
So worrying to see so many fires recently here. Two fire pumps were out as soon as it was seen, and know they won't stop until it's out with extra support.
We've spent the last 6 months engaging with organisations, allied health professionals and those in need of support to produce our policies. We need to make sure commitments on mental health are progressed for everyone.
Absolutely elated to see commitment from @allianceparty for #HarrysLaw as a priority in their new party manifesto #AE22 Feeling overwhelmed so I have little words right now other thank you for prioritising our children in their education and making this commitment 👏
