    I take your point. Perhaps my criticism is stemming from being a long time #unionist despairing at the loss of membership and coverage over the decades, the apparent passivity (due to msm non-reporting) and lack of visible action. I am still a union member, though retired, and until recently a Labor party member as well (I’ve lost faith in that organisation). The only time I hear of union action is through emailed CPSU newsletters.

  4. @JackTheCat @HarriettMB There is absolutely NO question that the #LibDems are a #unionist #Party. If they're pretending to be anything else, they ought to be ashamed of themselves. As for being in bed with #Scottish #Labour, it would make me very cross indeed if I were a #LibDem #voter, north or south of the #Border!

  10. @Glenmavis Der #Sonderbericht befasst sich nicht mit hypothetischen Szenarien, sondern lediglich mit den Fakten. Dass der #Unionist und Rechsoffene #Spahn als verantwortlicher Minister der offenkundig gegen unsere Interessen gehandelt hat, nicht gut weg kommt, gehört eben zu diesen #Fakten.

  14. Along with so many others, I will never advocate for a #UnitedIreland. I would take ten refugees any day over one of these boneheads behind this act of barbaric rascim. They are not and never will be Irish and our country has enough problems without having to accept or accommodate this lot.
    It's simply not worth it.

    OK, do you concede that this thread is about the #UK #GE2024 & NOT about #ScottishIndependence?

    I'm sat here wondering how I got dragged into this, BUT because I support your cause I've given you an honest personal take from my perspective. It seems some of you have come looking for a #Unionist argument, which you won't get from me, because I also support a united #Ireland & a devolved/Independent #Wales too.

    What point are you arguing?

  18. Small thought for this wet & windy Irish morning, if Jeff wants to convince non unionists to give the #Union a second thought
    is attacking everything that isn't #Unionist enough, helpful! Plus calling those Unionists who disagree with you, Lundies help? Also, small point if you don't top a poll, don't hold the institutions to ransom for two years.

  19. theguardian.com/uk-news/2024/f

    Manages six paragraphs of reporting, one describing the roof of Stormont, before #unionist sneering.

    Did @TheGuardian highlight Boris Johnson's father's record of domestic violence or Cameron ( père et fils)'s tax-dodging, oops, tax-efficient activities in reporting their election as PM?

    They've forgotten how to be #objective, which is the touchstone of good reporting. They have forgotten that #truth is the business they're supposed to be in.

  20. Finished it! What a journey through time (Middle Ages to now!) and struggle! ✊ It was interesting and inspiring as a #leftist and #unionist. A must read if you have been even a little interested in Catalonia independence. The final chapter on the last referendum is required reading to know what is going on including with the defeat of the amnesty bill this week!

    Neither did the 52% who voted to get rid of it! It's not surprising their dear leader didn't know either.

    He supposedly didn't know who the #unionist parties in #NI were either. He had to ask someone...

    This should be hardly surprising!

  26. @marcas @harriettmb @irelandpolitics

    Then I can't see the #DUP ever attracting any new voters especially the younger ones. They aren't capable of changing to make them more attractive. Doug may be trying to change the #UUP but the traditionalists in his party won't accept they need to change either.

    So it NI will continue to move away from the Unionist parties towards SF/Alliance which you can argue - are looking good when compared to the #Unionist parties.

    Something needs to change in #NI

  27. @therightarticle

    That's what happens when a party forgets what it is and pretends to be the other party.

    From the #SNP point of view, #Labour and the #Tories are two cheeks of the same #Unionist arse.

    "Apart from creating some of the most iconic characters on screen of the past 50 years, Harrison Ford is a staunch #unionist.

    That's good to know as members of SAG-AFTRA head towards a possible strike if negotiations with Hollywood studios aren't resolved later this month. #strongertogether (Photo by Gage Skidmore)"

  31. charade of the #preciousunion - we are not equal parts, we are not all the same and we don't have a say in the rules that govern us.

    The last seven years turned me from a contented #unionist to a passionate supporter of a #UnitedIreland.

    I want the same right to self determination that we were told we had to respect when the outcome of that 2016 vote.

    Also, the day the result was announced was my 40th Birthday! What a fecking birthday present that was...

    #Brexit was and still an bad idea.

  33. @harriettmb @irelandpolitics

    The next #GeneralElection might come sooner than they think!

    Are the #DUP ready to face the electorate again, so soon after the local elections, that saw the #Unionist population not turn out to vote.

    Also is #Jeff prepared to lose possibly 4 seats at WM to Sinn Féin & Alliance?

    He needs #Stormont back and soon. It is the only place they have power if it isn't reformed.

  34. @openDemocracy

    It wasn't all voters that were disengaged last week in #NI elections. Our turn out for the Local Election was slightly up.

    It was #Unionist voters that didn't turn out. The introduction of mandatory voting maybe might not be required, if their leaders could offer them a positive vision of the future, that encourages them to go out and vote!

    #NI already has different laws for voting than the rest of #GB. Maybe we should talk about that?

  35. I am catching up on yesterday's #NI #LE23 results before I watch the rest today.

    I am stunned at the #BlackMountain DEA in Belfast - Sinn Fein ran SEVEN candidates and got ALL of them returned! Plus they got all three in #GlengormleyUrban returned!

    #NIpolitics has shifted...again

    NI was created to have a permanent #Unionist majority! That is gone.....

    Stunning if you know our history!

  36. @JohnLoader6 @oranger2020 @jackLondon

    Brexit changed everything - I am a small example of that. I was a #UUP voter, contented #unionist and had no strong feelings on the constitutional future of #ni

    Now after Brexit, the last 7 years, I am happy to admit that I am no longer a Unionist, see no good future for #NI in the UK union. I am very much leaning towards voting for #UI but will need to see what the details are.

    We need to learn the lessons of Brexit!
