Dodds will win it again next time round. Demographic changes are over played. Especially over only a two year period. They almost certainly won't win South Belfast however as you said. But it is a bizarre metropolitan constituency where you can theoretically win with under 30% because there are so many candidates usually!

The DUP nor Sinn Fein will fear elections. They will get voted in again. And again. And again.... people moan but then vote the same as they always did!


They may not fear them but I think each will lose one seat at the next GE.....South Belfast and Foyle going with the SDLP, Eastwood and Hanna will run and they are very electable.

And despite your certainty, there is no guarantee or easy ride for Dodds in North Belfast.

That will be close enough.
 
As much as I hate the Tories.... They didn't lose the election. They won it. Won the most sets and are in power


No, they didn’t win the election,

They may have formed a government of sorts but that is not winning an election,

That is why they are in this mess.....they had to bring in a gang of wreckers from Ulster to prop them up and they have been mired in Ulster Says No politics ever since.
 
Every chance, Tim.

North Belfast will be very much in play based on the 2017 result.

Mr. Dodds had a 2000 majority in a seat in which whe the other Unionist party gave him a free run.

Changing demographics in the constituency will make for an even closer contest next time.



Correct Khal. The Shinners needed a new high profile candidate for there who could appeal to non typical voters and they found it in John Finucane.

In the absence of another Unionist Pact then the DUP have a fight on their hands to hold North Belfast.

A Brexit enduced GE could be bad news indeed for the DUP.
 
Let’s be having you. They should be lining up. Number 10’s letterbox should have been clogged up by now with resignations. Leadsom, Fox, Gove, Grayling, where are you? And the ERG we’ve barely heard from? Where are those Tory principles you’ve been banging on about for three years? All I've heard from is Anne bleeding Widdecombe...
 
Survival Days in the woods organised by Mark Francois where they role play a scenario that the country has fallen to socialists and the small band of elite ERG are the only ones who can reclaim her.

As long as it doesn't rain as it might harm their sensitive skin and of course they will need to stay out of direct sunlight, else they might turn to dust.
 
I have always liked and admired Peter Oborne, but this popcorn in today's Mail beats almost anything else he has come up with:

This kind of collaboration between the two major political parties normally takes place only in wartime. But Brexit has become an emergency and Mrs May spoke of the need for ‘national unity to deliver the national interest’.

It’s a dangerous ploy, which may not work. Mr Corbyn can now lay down conditions. When the last Labour leader in this position, Clement Attlee, agreed to join a Coalition government to fight World War II, he refused to serve under Lord Halifax, the most senior Tory politician. Churchill was chosen instead.

Also, have you filmed yourselves tearing up your membership cards and put it on Twitter yet @peteblue ? Other tories here?
