When I took notice of politics again, @BeattieDoug drew me towards the UUP, and if I am honest, I was very close to wanting to join the party as a result. Personally I think it would be a mistake for the @uuponline to lose him.

A source close to Doug Beattie said the former UUP leader was being forced out because he was regarded as being too moderate. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Fartage is too lazy to become PM. He wants to go down pub, smoke a few ciggies and do Karaoke! Then when he’s half lit he’ll shout out to “Uppa Waaaaa”!

The prospect of Prime Minister Farage should focus minds across this island. Ireland cannot afford to drift through the next decade. We need serious, responsible and inclusive planning for constitutional change for the kind of future we want to build together. @MatthewOToole2

This is the “crazy scale”. Claire Hanna is on 32% crazy, which is safe!! On the balance Stormont is 66% sane. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Anyone watching & listening to the Jim Allister tribute act performance from Jon Burrows in the Assembly yesterday will understand that all three unionist parties are coalescing on the familiar terrain of the perpetually angry & antagonistic Right. Some faces won’t fit any more.

NEW from DUP leader Gavin Robinson: “Whilst Sinn Fein remains obsessed with chasing headlines and ever-changing promises around border polls, our focus is on making Northern Ireland work within the United Kingdom for the benefit of everyone.” facebook.com/share/p/18g6cb…

@innersoul444 Henry allowed to rule the roost too much in the discussion

Our neighbours in England, Scotland (almost) and Wales have totally lost the run of themselves! Absolutely insane results and the end of sane politics! Somehow, they didn’t run here! Maybe we’re too crazy for them!!

To the nationalists who accuse unionists of being sectarian for not accepting the sectarian GAA and unwanted Irish street signs, I’ve one question.
Would you support and defend a person to wear their Orange Sash while having a walk down the falls road?
Let’s see consistency.

@Matthew19Dillon @TheBikeShed I’m very disappointed for you….

@TheBikeShed Be great if someone asks Peadar about his views on Bobby Sands.
Peadar Tóibín TD@Toibin1
At the age of 7, I remember being floored by the slow & painful sacrifice of Bobby Sands for a freedom he'd never get to experience himself. Like many others I knew, I too had a responsibility to work for full democratic Independence. Thankfully we can do this peacefully today.

Let me explain “High-falutin’”:
Clear: “The soil is weak and needs improvement.”
High-falutin’: “The geotechnical substratum exhibits suboptimal load-bearing characteristics necessitating remedial intervention.”
Same idea — one is just dressed up to sound grand.
