The DUP thread

[Armagh18]

I see Carla is bringing forward a pile of proposals to remove elected officials if convicted of a crime- wouldn't you just love her to be done for inciting the mob in Scarva!

Is what MON did even a crime? I thought it was the legal equivalent of a parking ticket?

It's performative nonsense but the point t is she is perfectly happy and believes there are votes in anti democratic rhetoric

[Milltown Row2]

She's no clue how long something like that would take to go through actual parliament the lords amendments and so on! They'll (including her) would be retired!

Her best mate Jamie would be barred as well?

Bringing forward that legislation would soon remove half of the MPs at Westminister

Nothing ever changes. In the 1820's, the british introduced legislation to stop Daniel O'Connell's monster meetings (Unlawful Societies). But it backfired and the ban applied to Orange Order too and there were no OO parades for a number of years lol.

What is Carla Lockhart's long term plan? Will she eventually go TUV?

Aye you could see her take dino Jims place in a few years.

I wouldn't be sure there is a plan. I suspect there was a bit of pushing before the jump too.

The TUV is a one man show, would he share the limelight?

Jim will keep going till he drops, the rest in the TUV have little or no intelligence, but like their voters it suits.

Carla has royally fucked up, if she goes with TUV next GE election the UUP and DUP will, out of shear lunacy, put in their own, splitting that vote and causing more divisions, one nationalist/republican nominee should go up against them, be a tight vote in a normally easy unionist area

The DUP will have to run a candidate against her, even if it's some complete unknown.

They would need to be careful. Upper Bann like east Derry is actually more catholic than protestant they just both have historical poor nationalist turnouts. A motivated nationalist electorate could turn both green next Westminster election

She's up to stuff though. She's trying to get a name for herself by getting Michelle O'Neill out of stormont. Her strings are abundantly clear being pulled by Bryson. If she loses her seat she is completely finished.

Going independent is a very good move by her. In the interests of unity no unionist party will stand against her. It would have been quite different had she joined the TUV, there would have been a bloodbath. Going independent didn't do Paul Berry much harm
