"I want to promote shared spaces and tackle symbols of paramilitarism in our community to showcase Lurgan as a vibrant, diverse and welcoming place to live and work."
Alliance MLA Eóin Tennyson said: “Peter has a proven track record of delivery since his election in 2019. Throughout his time as Alliance group leader he has been solution-focused, and helped navigate our local authority through challenges posed by the Covid-19 pandemic and the rising cost of living.
"In Lurgan, he has had the courage and conviction to stand up against symbols of paramilitarism and coercion in our community when too many other local representatives have been silent.
