Despite repeated claims, it’s evident that the DUP is NOT finished. To our vehement and unrelenting detractors; the DUP will not be moved by your abuse and gaslighting. We have a mandate. The DUP has demonstrated an iron courage in fighting for the people of Northern Ireland.

The mockery around Kate Forbes’s decision to pray for guidance is despicable. The same rhetoric would never be applied elsewhere. It’s deeply shameful that people are so intent on ostracising others.

An elected rep labelling those they disagree with as “far right” is deeply disappointing We need to take a compassionate approach to this issue, ensuring that parents and families have a say in what happens in the life of their child. The state doesn’t own children.

The DUP’s “let kids be kids” campaign is a disgusting dog-whistle to the far-right. Information is power. Access to comprehensive, factual & age-appropriate RSE is the best defence our young people have against abuse and coercion - be it in childhood or later in life.

Currently, there are many significant regulations for those under 18. You cannot buy alcohol, tobacco, fireworks, gamble or see certain films. These restrictions protect young people. Why should we give the vote, if they are not trusted to make simple health decisions?
