This happened for first time ever at the local elections last year. The trend cannot be reversed and Unionists will never outpoll Natiobalists ever again, including in a Unity Referendum.
They should but may also be giving up a few percentage points to help Farry in North Down and Long in East Belfast, whereas Unionists will step aside to help another Unionist and overall won't give up Unionist percentages.
I wonder, for all the talk of infighting within unionism currently, will they come together and have a pact?
