Voting Red-Handed?

The DUP is at it again. Its electoral bloc would permanently hold the balance of power in the Dáil of a United Ireland, but that probably means that the 26 Counties would never take the Six. Not that that obliges us to hold onto them. We could just walk out of Northern Ireland, as we had walked out of numerous other places over the years, and let the Republic take it or not, for all that we would care.

The Free Presbyterian Church of Ulster has congregations in Bridlington, Bristol, Gardenstown, Lewes, Liverpool, Merthyr Tydfil, Oulton Broad, Rutherglen, South Grove, and Tavistock. Each presumably contains at least 11 adults, one to be the candidate and 10 to sign the nomination papers, so there are 10 Commons seats in Great Britain that the DUP ought to contest, and let us see how well it did.

  1. South Grove is in Stella Creasy's constituency, please let there be a Paisleyite candidate against her.

    1. After all, for whom do those congregants vote now?
