Well, not quite, but the DUP have promised to "fight house-to-house, street-to-street and district-to-district to see South Belfast won back for Unionism."
Shock and awe!
Does their commitment to having a 'unionist' elected in South Belfast extend as far as standing down unilaterally? Since the UCUNF have stated categorically that they will be standing in every seat, South Belfast and Fermanagh and South Tyrone included, the only possible way that the DUP can realistically contribute to a unionist victory would be to stand down in both constituencies.
If they don't, they are hypocrites. If they do, they'll have retreated in the face of the threat from UCUNF. It seems that the DUP are in a lose-lose situation in both of these two constituencies. This is yet another corner that the DUP has painted themselves into.

At least they are being (Unintentionally) honest. It's not about keeping Sinn Fein out anymore, Its about keeping the Taigs out. Their sole policy appears to be "Unionist Politicians whatever the cost"(As long as its us)
Nothing about representing all constituents, policy, vision, economics, infrastructure, jobs etc.
Unbelievable
Keeping the 'taigs' out? I presume you mean keeping Nationalists out?
Yes watcher.
If you lived in this part of the world you'd know that. As well as my ironic inference
If you meant Nationalists you should have said so. You see some people think the word 'taig' means Catholic. As far as I know The Conservative party for one has no problem with Catholics, as long as they're not Irish Nationalists.

It doesn't matter what The Oxford Dictionary says, the word 'taig' denotes Catholic in The Northern Irish context in the common parlance and was deliberately chosen by you to indicate religious rather than political persuasion.
Watcher McCann, it is time for you to get a life so quit your drooling.
