Armstrong is a complete ignoramus. Just cos she's the Alliance Chief Whip at Stormont, she thinks she owns the place. Completely up her own arse - a vindictive & nasty piece of work altogether.

Remember on Nolan once she was talking absolute shite about how the Republic still had a lot to do to become as liberal and progressive as the UK, funny I dont remember when the UK had a PM who was openly gay and non-white. Sure even Tony Blair didnt become a catholic until he was out of office for fear of the shit storm it would cause. Nope I cant stand her and I once voted Alliance but they seem to be annoying me more and more

What was the numbers at the last election in NB?

21240 Dodds
19159 Finucane

There were 2k SDLP votes last time which are now up for grabs . It's very much in play.

Even if SF had got all the SDLP votes they would have still lost by 23

It just comes down to a good old sectarian head count.

There is nothing sectarian about my dislike of the DUP

SF might get some 23 'soft' Alliance votes and it'll be a draw.

Free kicks or penalties then????

I doubt the majority of SDLP voters will switch to the shinners.

2 things here:

1. Pro EU candidate.
2. Give Dodds his P45

By the way, you could switch the 1 and 2 around.

3.  Sinn Féin is utterly useless and doesn't represent anyone but their own self interests.

This is an absolutely crucial message , voting for Finucane is an anti-sectarian vote . He has proved himself as intelligent and likeable  , trying hard to break down barriers. DOdds and the DUP never show any generosity and the u-turn by alleged remainer  Aiken under pressure from the UDA betrays yet again , that some unionists still just can't countenance having a "fenian about the place".

Criticise SF all you like, but no matter how "useless" they are, the most pragmatic approach  to ensure having less Brexit votes in Westminster is crucial . Handing Dodds and his band of bigots their P45 is an opportunity not to be missed. And that's a strongly anti-sectarian viewpoint . All nationalists and anyone else who has been on the receiving end of these dinosaurs ( ie most of the population) , May never get a better opportunity to drive that anti-sectarian message home.

I don't see it that way. The fact that both nationalist parties are stepping aside in North Down and East Belfast means it can't be viewed as that. Also the fact that both will contest Fermanagh and South Tyrone also means that unlike the DUP/UUP arrangement this isn't a sectarian head count
Careful now

You're as bad as Syferus was.

Good move by the 2 nationalist parties. I imagine N Belfast will be very, very ugly.

It's already started. I would say Finucane would need to step up his security arrangements.There is a lot of bad blood already. (Well done DUP)
