#LeadersDebate: Blame it on the boogie

UPDATED

A depressingly accurate piece on politics in Northern Ireland from Chris Buckler has been played repeatedly on the BBC news channel during the course of today.

It comes on a day when seven party leaders in Great Britain fought it out in a televised debate /gameshow tonight .

Despite protestations the DUP were NOT included in the debate.

Peter Robinson tweeted his outrage last month:

Peter

Perhaps after viewing the BBC piece we should be grateful for small mercies.

The otherwise depressing report is enlivened by a contribution from our very own Deputy Editor ‘Disco Dave’ McCann

Who will be stayin’ alive after the debate? Who will be suffering from night fever? Who will be able to say “there ain’t no stopping us now”?

You decide.
