There is indeed one true Progressive who can win... one who supports transparency of political donations and women's right to choose!https://twitter.com/almcdonnellsb/status/871004283562491904 …

I am strongly for marriage equality & I have stated my sympathetic Pro Life position, like members of your party are they not progressive?
No-one in Alliance said doctors get it wrong most of time on FFA. And people campaigning for you refused to condemn harassment at clinics.
Bernie Smyth supporter was angry with me because I said we will not tolerate harassment of women... we are getting it from Left and Right..
Asked Alasdair where he stood. I know where SDLP stand: condemned it. But Cllrs who refused were photographed postering for Alasdair.
Colum has made the party position clear on this matter..
Colum has, so I didn't ask about the SDLP: I asked about Alasdair, as some of those Cllrs campaigning for him. Does he share their view?
No, he would have supported the BCC motion, like all parties we have are own internal procedures on this matter..
Then why campaign with people who have had the whip suspended and not answer me when I asked earlier?
I thought abortion was a conscience issue for your party, Naomi? Are you saying you have party members & reps who aren't "progressive"?
Abortion is conscience issue. Stating doctors never get it right with FFA isn't. Harassing women at clinics isn't. Alasdair side-stepping.
No, in your preceding tweet you implied "opposing any change to abortion law" isn't progressive. Are your pro life voters/reps regressive?
I didn't say that wasn't progressive. I simply stated it was his current position. Read the tweet.
It's the clear and obvious implication Naomi!
No, it isn't. Read the tweets. I made my objection to Alasdair's stance explicit, so there's no need for conjecture on your part.
Why are Alliance only courting the pro choice vote in South Belfast?
Because it's one of the biggest things that distinguishes them from @AlMcDonnellSB
So, if I'm an undecided pro life voter they don't want mine?
Well tbf I think they'd point out its a conscience issue. candidate in SB is pro choice. Think their issue is mainly with attitude of SDLP?
Her platform tell me she opposes my views so how could she fully represent my pro life views?
Well then I suppose it's a q of whether that single issue is more important than all the others you may or may not agree on
My issue is why single that issue out? Are we as pro lifers in South Belfast some sort of weird minority?
