EdgarusQPFC Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Apparently John Major has appeared almost out of nowhere to tell TM that she should drop the DUP deal as he fears it may restart violence in Northern Ireland 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

resk Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 I read today that it's normal practice for the DUP to show up at Westminster on Tuesday lunchtimes then disappear on Wednesday evenings. Ripping the pish TBH. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeTillEhDeh Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 It would obviously be better if the Alliance party were the dominant force in NI politics, but that doesn't change the fact that there are currently a lot of people in the rest of the UK suddenly making a lot of noise about what is wrong about the DUP when they haven't given two Rafael Scheidts over the highly negative impact that DUP policies have been having on some people's lives in NI over the last few decades, because they find it a useful weapon now that they are winding up with a Tory government courtesy of the DUP. These same people wouldn't bat an eyelid if the DUP were propping up a "progressive alliance" instead because it's really all about what's good for them. Not true.I would want any NI party involved in a progressive alliance because it would undermine the Good Friday Agreement. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongTimeLurker Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Think you are falling for propaganda. The SDLP were closely aligned with Labour at Westminster post GFA up until they got wiped out electorally last week with nothing untoward happening. On the Unionist side of things, nobody got their knickers in a twist about the Conservative-UUP alliance back in 2010 in terms of the GFA being threatened if they won. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Gaines Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 My only experience of the failed statelet to date was a stoat around Larne as a teenager. It remains to this day the most depressing town I've ever visited. And I'm from the Shire. You're a hobbit? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think the world has moved on a wee bit from the Tory/UUP days of yore. The DUP come across as, well, odd. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim McLean's Ghost Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Saw on the news the DUP shouting out sectarian slogans "the Future's Bright" says Arlene, "the future's Orange" some arsehole behind her. Just sickening. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ripping the pish TBH. Similarly, what I've never understood is how Ian Paisley managed to be the head of a church, the head of a political party, an MP, MEP and MLA - all at the same time?
