If you English voters think you have it bad, you should come over to Norn Iron about now. The town I live in is swamped by DUP posters (basically the conservative party with a hint of mashed potatoes and spring onions).
As if it wasnt bad enough that we already have the UUP and UKUP, all of whom are so similar you could barely put a cigarette paper between them, we now have the TUV (traditionalist unionist voice)[sic] and now we have a 'conservative and unionist coalition'. Basically, theres about 5 tory parties standing in the same election, and the only hint of an alternative is the greens. Fucking sickening.

anyway, [/rant]

Wouldn't 5 tory parties be grand because it splits the vote?

Beourgioise reformists. In my eyes, SF stopped being progressives when they declared 'We are a party of business'.

Besides, I live in a unionist town. Nationalist and Republican parties don't stand in this constituency.

Well it would be nice if the alternatives had a hope in hell of getting a good vote.

The DUP always does the best because they're the most sectarian and shout the loudest.
