Get this whole undemocratic party gone for me . just extreme and awful as to all of them in my view.
It's scary that in N Ireland, this party still gets the most votes in elections. Really worrying. Last edited by joeysteele; 22-06-2021 at 05:07 PM. |

I’m glad he is gone, I saw him interviewed on Marr, he made Arlene looks like a pussy cat Sin Fein have asked Westminster to legislate on Irish language as he blocked it, then he appointed someone against his parties wishes

It's about time these parties started viewing NI as a whole country with citizens who identify as Irish and as British and trying to accommodate them both. What harm does it do to a British identifying Northern Irish citizen? No one is going to force them to learn Irish.

I think Irish (certainly in the Republic anyway) is much more popular(?) though. We still have towns and Islands around Ireland (not loads but a good few) that speak Irish as their first language and also it's a subject taught all the way through both primary and secondary school. Most Irish people have at least a basic knowledge of the Irish language

As an aside, it’s nothing to do with the people who vote for the DUP agreeing with some of their politician’s backward ideas either. I don’t know one DUP voter who does. Poots was one of the worst dinosaurs, so good riddance.
Many Protestants vote DUP to stop Sinn Fein becoming the dominant party, many Catholics vote for Sinn Fein to stop the DUP being dominant. It’s fear from both sides, a leftover from the Troubles. The other parties are left behind now, like mine (the SDLP) Alliance and the Unionist Party. Being from a mixed marriage, I was a kid terrified that my Mum or Dad would be murdered by a Catholic OR a Protestant, cos being married to one of ‘them’ was enough to get you killed, especially as my Dad was in politics. I think the DUP aren’t going to last much longer as a dominant party, they are a mess. |

Not like us.

For an anti-abortion party, they sure as hell don't like going full term, do they?

I've never liked Donaldson.
Mind you that's not saying much because I'll freely and happily admit I intensely dislike this political Party and therefore really don't care who leads it. As I've not an ounce of respect for those in it. So as to myself I do hold a biased and intolerant view of the DUP. Last edited by joeysteele; 23-06-2021 at 04:58 AM. |
