Micky Reg & Me

Speculation is useless. But whoever put this skit together obviously thinks there may only be two UUP Westminster seats come some time late time tomorrow. Most of these guys will be glad to see the end of what’s been a tough election road, that didn’t start well (with Michael Copeland’s office being searched). McGimpsey is by temperament and by background a businessman. He was drawn into politics through his involvement in the peace movement. He seems at times bewildered at some of the visceral flack he’s had throughout the campaign. Thanks to reader Mark!

We are reader supported. Donate to keep Slugger lit!

For over 20 years, Slugger has been an independent place for debate and new ideas. We have published over 40,000 posts and over one and a half million comments on the site. Each month we have over 70,000 readers. All this we have accomplished with only volunteers we have never had any paid staff.

Slugger does not receive any funding, and we respect our readers, so we will never run intrusive ads or sponsored posts. Instead, we are reader-supported. Help us keep Slugger independent by becoming a friend of Slugger. While we run a tight ship and no one gets paid to write, we need money to help us cover our costs.

If you like what we do, we are asking you to consider giving a monthly donation of any amount, or you can give a one-off donation. Any amount is appreciated.
