  1. Comment on “The trouble with the UUP is that it doesn’t really want a leader that makes decisions….”
    on 20 March 2012 at 2:29 pm

    Why would McCallister do this whilst McNarry remains in the Party and under review??? Surely that disciplinary procedure must run its course before anyone could be expelled…
    This to me epitomises everything that is wrong with the UUP as an organisation – there is a total lack of discipline (even when it concerns an issue of discipline!!)
    Further stoking the McNarry fire won’t bring anything positive for the UUP and one would have thought McCallister as a leadership contender should have known this.

  2. Comment on Bomb scare in Armagh reroutes main St Patrick’s Day parade…
    on 17 March 2012 at 10:08 pm

    Just back home there from tonight’s parade in Armagh. Stood most of the time at the top of Upper English Street and not a hint of trouble.

    Was talking to Quincey briefly and he was in full organisational mode…

    Went well and everyone seemed to disperse quickly…. Probably due to the near zero temps….

  4. Comment on POTD – Armagh memorial
    on 2 June 2011 at 1:38 pm

    Pity you hadn’t caught it today with the sun shining – a real gem of a place for the City…

    best memories of it are of the Mall Presbyterian Church summer bible club when a youngster… juice and biccies round 10.00am and then the big doors were flung open… the sun beating down on the nicely cut grass and the wind in the chesnut trees and the jumpers for goal posts….

    those were the days!

  5. Comment on Council Results
    on 10 May 2011 at 12:56 pm

    That is some result for the Dup’s in Cusher(Armagh) under 2 quotas and take the 2 seats – seems the UUP had well over 3 quotas and lost out – obvious which Party is learning the vote management trade…

  6. Comment on UUP’s unforced errors could undermine its own campaign…
    on 24 March 2011 at 4:27 pm

    For the UUP it seems like at each election another phase of the ‘self destruct policy’ is implemented…. this surely must be a policy – it has to be…. as it appears to be followed quite closely and in terms of marks out of 10 for meeting targets they are at least at an 8.

    48 hour progress report:
    Resignation of senior party member
    Dismissal of top advisor to Danny Kennedy
    On air in-fighting between MLA’s

    The contrast between the UUP and the DUP could not be greater.

  7. Comment on Positive/negative campaigning
    on 9 March 2011 at 11:58 am

    double jobbing

    my goodness – that was so 2010.

    you know when you paint over rust – it’s still rust underneath

    rust = UUP
    paint = Elliot

  8. Comment on Do local student sabbatical election winners go on to pursue political life post college?
    on 3 March 2011 at 3:38 pm

    Coleraine didn’t have any political groupings at the time – back in 1997….

    I was there the day Tony visited though by helicopter… to push the referendum over the line….

    and i wonder if the ‘Blair promises’ still hang above the library entrance in the main building???
