This set of affairs deserves a fitting reminder, currently being kept by an algorithmically driven site called howlonghasnorthernirelandnothadagovernment.com.
It also contains a few other useful data points. I thought it might be a good moment to open a thread for answers to two simple but related questions:
What horrendous blunder led to the mothballing of Stormont? What did you learn from it?
As we do from time to time, we will run the discussion below on a couple of rules specific to this thread alone:
- You must attempt to answer both questions. But nothing more.
- Comment on other people’s answers will not be allowed.
NB: All non compliant answers will be quietly removed (so take care how you answer).
