In any case I can't see what the big deal was. Is it not the case that when elected you're expected to serve all the electorate and not only those who voted for you.

I no longer vote on tribal lines but for candidate (s) who I agree with and who have a track record.
My preference would be for an independent Northern state,if economically viable ultimately,devoid of toxic,bizarre and irrational allegiances to the British or 26 county states,which has brought about nothing but misery and division.

Hard to know. We live in strange times - Trump, Brexit referendum. Corbyn's underdog appeal could work for him in the same way it worked for Major against Kinnock in 1992. Corbyn might also appeal to young voters wishing to protest. It's a long shot I know but here's hoping

Corbyn' policies are as bird brained as Micheal Foot's back in the early 80s.He has yet to learn that commmunism/socialism is great as long as someone else pays the bills.
Election should render the DUP members at Westminster surplus to requirements at Westminster.SNP had their best ever election last time,just like SF they deliver little or nothing,and a lot of Scots are beginning to see through them.
Overall this could be as bad for Labour as 1997 was for the Tories.

There was no atmosphere at the match and even the row at the end didn't ignite any passion on the terraces , more bemusement in my opinion. I think both sets of fans knew that the result would only judge who was the worst of 2 bad teams. McGeeney must have to look at himself and if he decides to stay he has some neck on him. I've heard the figure of £80,000 mentioned a few times and if it's true then it's shocking. Means that by the end of this year he'll have earned just short of a quarter of a million quid, for what. We have good players who have been ruined by him. I'm told he stood back in the Carrickdale on Sunday night and let the players tear into each other. If that's the case where does leadership come into it. He then, allegedly, at the end of the evening, snuck out a back door. If that's true it says a lot.
So Mc Geeney had no input yesterday,at half time etc,it was all down to John Toal,according to himself? Is this the way this will be spun,don't blame Kieran?
I said last week that this game didn't matter,neither team will have a long summer.That was proven yesterday.The Down delight was muted and more about winning a Championship fixture.Meanwhile I walked back into Newry City Centre after the game,with hordes of others,Down and Armagh fans and saw no evidence of unfettered joy from Down fans nor heard any moaning from Armagh fans.This is a long way from the halcyon days when a win in this fixture would have been celebrated like an All Ireland win or a defeat would have incited a riot in protest.Narrow Defeat in this fixture in 1991 cost Joe Kernan and Paddy Moriarity their jobs (and they had brought the team to the Ulster Final the previous year).Are both teams now that poor that people have given up?

How am I not a true fan? Honouring the Lions and paying a substantial sum for two tickets with all profits going to the Celtic Foundation who do magnificent work?
