“At the last local government elections in 2019 we increased our numbers from five councillors to nine and topped the poll in each of the seven electoral areas.
“A key objective for Alliance is to make Northern Ireland work, and we can only do that if we elect representatives who are prepared to roll their sleeves up and get on with the difficult issues that people worry about.
“On May 18 the voters have the chance to send a clear signal that they too want Northern Ireland to move forward to a better future by putting their trust in Alliance.”
