John Lambies Doos Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 The more I read about this the more I think the secretary of state for NI has an agenda for direct rule. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbairn Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-northern-ireland-41280204 Another consequence of having no Executive. Why the f**k are they still on full pay? No wonder the lazy c***s won't do a deal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedRob72 Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 The more I read about this the more I think the secretary of state for NI has an agenda for direct rule. It may well play into the hands of SF, but its possibly the only way to get them back to work.As mentioned previously, it's a scandal in itself that these elected politicians are still on full pay and allowances without doing a day's work (apart from slating each other) since January.On the other hand, does Brokenshire really want that headache or indeed is he capable of taking up the reins, not many seem convinced thus far. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have thought the last thing the government wants is to have Direct Rule. And as for James Brokenshire "having an agenda" - wise up, he has difficulty lacing his shoes, far less working out agendas.

Island with a population of 180 has never had a jackpot lottery winner before. Who'd have thought it? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
