Have you noticed how much online content is trying to project stuff on to you that you donā€™t actually care about? For example I am content to age. I donā€™t want or need tweakments, glass skin, bratz doll lips, a million supplements, turkey teeth, or make up every day.

RT by @AmandaFBelfast: Those behind last nightā€™s attack in Dunmurry speak for absolutely no one. They have no vision, no support, and have nothing to offer our society.

RT by @AmandaFBelfast: I have left the SDLP with immediate effect. My focus will remain on the ground in my community, representing the people of West Belfast. For clarity, I was not at the hastily arranged Belfast City Council meeting this week - contrary to some posts directed at me. I was dealing with an emerging issue in the community and therefore did not have the opportunity to vote against the DUP motion - which I would have done. Anyone suggesting otherwise is simply trying to score cheap political points. As someone from West Belfast, I know the Bobby Sands statue in Twinbrook holds real significance for people in our community and beyond. People should be entitled to remember him in this way, and I fully support that. Shame on the DUP and others for turning this into a political stunt. My focus remains, as always - on the people of my community. If anyone would like to engage further on this directly, you know where I am.
