Tackling Segregation and the Cost of Division

We have made enormous progress over the past 10-15 years in Northern Ireland. But our home is still plagued by division, sectarianism and outright bigotry. Sectarianism blights lives and sometimes still kills outright. In economic terms, the Northern Ireland Executive's own report estimated that we waste £1.5 billion a year on providing duplicated services to a divided community.

Alliance is the only major party that draws significant numbers of people from both main traditions in Northern Ireland, and from beyond them. Alliance is the only major party that recognises sectarianism and segregation as the most serious issues facing Northern Ireland - sapping our economy, making us a less attractive destination for investment and wrecking lives.
