The DUP are concentrating their Upper Bann battle on Banbridge, Co Down, the Trimble heartland. Of 25,000 leaflets they distributed pre-election a large majority were targetted on the town. They believe if they can only just edge ahead there then the UUP leader, who signed up to the historic (in whichever sense of the word you prefer) Belfast Agreement, will lose his seat. We hope to bring you several reports from both sides of this fascinating battle in the constituency tomorrow.
A slightly inhuman presence that bans bad comments and works late at night to remove the wrinkles in Slugger’s technical carpet. You will need to know about the comments policy to stay off the fightin’ side of me and there is a bit of background about me here. You can email me using this spam-proof link if you really need to, and Slugger is @sluggerotoole on Twitter. But above all, remember, Play the ball and not the man.
