1. Comment on Sinn Fein offer for Nationalist Pact spurned
   on 14 April 2010 at 12:24 am

   Last Thursday Michelle Gildernew said the unionist pact in FST amounted to, “the old agenda of division and inequality” and said it was a backward step.

   Does she agree now with Gerry Adams that there should be a nationalist pact??

   Wonder how this line from his blog,

   “As a Victims Commissioner I worked very hard for individuals – in fact, I may have engaged with and helped more than any other commissioner”

   will go down with Patricia McBride?

   Tell you what Chris, I hope you end up refereeing the Tyrone match. You have us 2.9 to 1.0 at one stage? The furthest ahead we got was 10 points.

   Agree CJ was disappointing with hsi shooting, tho his passing was effective. Niblock, McCann(s) and Healey starred.

   “The regulations are not as clear as they might be”. Hope Mark reads that, he was ‘stunned’ when I pointed it out.

   It is not that an election is ‘possible’ before the end of May, it is an absolute legal requirement.

   “Election time is when an election is happening” – are you suggesting it isn’t happening until the queen actually sets the date?

   Anyway let Alliance pursue the DOE. Two useless organisations chasing each other’s tails.

   I’m not spinning, and certaibnly not for the Stoops, but you are suggesting that the poster are legal once the electino is called, and the extract you ave provided from the legislation doesn’t say that.

   Legally there has to be an election by the end of May – parliament will have run its course. There is no denying therefore that we are in ‘election time’.

8. Comment on “£110,000 of additional funding from Atlantic Philanthropies” for NIHRC campaign on BoR
   on 27 March 2010 at 5:26 am

   The NIHRC movement, of which the AP trust fund is a massive player is a total con job on the NI public. It is a disgrace waiting to be revealed.

   Uncle Quentin did ok though!

   Not sure what your irrelevant question amounts to Paddy, but if you have a genuine interest in the county, welcome aboard. If not, just walk on by.

    Where precisely is the wording which suggests that the SDLP are breaking the law?

    No mention here of an election having been called, merely ‘at election time.’

    Don’t think anyone can deny we are ‘at election time’
