Nope, I didn't - and knowing that now makes me feel a little uneasy, I would never have thought that the sum total of impact felt from the Arena atrocity for some would be a cheap, shite flag with mixed messages on it. You seem to know about the Black Standard or at least the people who use it, how about the Ulster Banner?

I suspect most flags have a story, the trick is understanding it.

Hi, okay - I'll work on that, thanks for the feedback.

Straight out of the Crosby-Textor phrase book.

It was wrong then and it's wrong now - and no-one can blame Corbz for the NuLabour clusterfucks.

He's on the wind-up.

Quite, it's ridiculous.

Good grief.

Brendan O'Neill - eeeesh.

I've not checked, however thank you for your contributions - it is most welcome!

I can see where this is heading...

I'd rather see a less sarcastic, banter-esque, one-liner, hate at all costs at whatever price Parliament that encourages cross-party debate to reach a fair decision than the Parliament we have now - essentially using half-assed coalitions with backwater parties. I'm sure you'll agree, in this instance using the UDP as a crutch for power will only end in tears,and more besides. I don't have to get used to anything.

Which is a decisive victory. This patched up crock of shite isn't a win. You think this is a win? Fuck me.

'326 seats needed to win'

'... Party sources say Peter Robinson will be seen as an asset at Westminster as the DUP maps out it strategy to shore up a Conservative government with the narrowest of leads.' Peter Robinson used to have a penchant for wearing paramilitary berets and firing guns.

I know who they are, I just can't believe that the Conservatives would allow a Protestant Unionist party with paramilitary links anywhere near Government after trying to attack Corbz with the IRA connection.

DUP? I still can't believe the depths that the Conservatives will plumb to hang on to this. Fucken DUP. They're absolute crackpots.

On the point-of a Tory-led coalition Government, DUP – really?

A great show of support from her constituents.

The Manifestos Conservatives Labour Liberal Democrats SNP UKIP Green FACTCHECK Labour’s Land Value Tax: will you have to sell your garden? Many people asked us about the so-called "Garden Tax". Labour has only committed to considering the idea, as have the Green and Liberal Democrat parties.Ultimately if it was adopted it would depend on how the policy was actually designed. There's no reason to assume enthusiastic gardeners would be badly hit by switching systems. Read more FACTCHECK Naylor Review: will the Conservatives sell NHS property to developers? Many people also asked us about the Naylor Review of NHS land. Published in March 2017, it’s come to public attention more recently after Theresa May confirmed in an interview that the government supported the independent review’s recommendations. The basic message of the Naylor Review is that some NHS assets should be sold in order to improve the rest. Read more FACTCHECK NHS viral video, factchecked We factchecked a video making numerous claims about the NHS that had gone viral with 9.8 million views on Facebook. This was part of our election work with First Draft. Read more FACTCHECK Have armed police numbers been cut? There are about 700 fewer now than in 2010. Labour's claim accurately quotes the latest published Home Office figures, but a recruitment drive and newer figures from the National Police Chiefs' Council have changed the picture. The numbers are expected to return to 2010 levels over the next few years. Read more EXPLAINER What is the “dementia tax”? It’s a name used by some to describe the Conservative’s proposals for adult social care. The party’s manifesto put forward three key proposals for England. Read more BLOG Election 2017: what the parties haven’t told voters Full Fact factchecks what the parties do say. Often what they haven’t said matters even more. On the economy – “The shame of the two big parties’ manifestos is that neither sets out an honest set of choices.” “It is likely that the Conservatives would either have to resort to tax or borrowing increases to bail out public services under increasing pressure, or would risk presiding over a decline in the quality of some of those services, including the NHS. “Labour’s commitment to a much bigger public sector would require higher taxes that affect many of us. A bigger state than the one we have been used to is perfectly feasible as many countries have demonstrated, but Labour should not pretend that such a step-change could be funded entirely by a small minority at the very top.” — Institute for Fiscal Studies. Read more. On the NHS – “Projections by the independent Office for Budget Responsibility suggest that a real-terms funding increase of about £30 billion a year is needed in five years’ time to enable the NHS to deal with these pressures. None of the main political parties has pledged enough to cover even half of that, while the share of our national wealth spent on healthcare would fall under all of their plans.” — Health Foundation, Nuffield Trust, King’s Fund. Read more. On immigration – “The manifestos are not credible on post-Brexit immigration... Both parties argue that free movement should end after we leave the EU, but details beyond that are patchy. Delivering change on this sort of scale will take years, and voters may find themselves back at the ballot box in 2022 before any new government’s manifesto promises on immigration become a reality.” — Institute for Government. Read more. On Brexit – “The Conservative, Labour and Liberal Democrats’ manifestos all ignore the true potential impact of Brexit.” The academics point out how Brexit negotiations will affect the economy, health, and immigration and say: “What is striking, is that while all three parties view Brexit as a major event, the manifestos treat it largely in isolation from other aspects of policy, rather than the defining issue of the next parliament.” — UK in a Changing Europe.
