• Perhaps the answer lies in the reasoning you mentioned. People who voted for SF or DUP still vote for them. Other people do not vote because of the lack of other options.
    The other reason, which is more likely, is that the vote is based on either - vote for DUP to stop SF getting a seat or vote for SF to stop DUP getting a seat.
    The lack of other ‘reasonable’ options is a headache and one which will not be cured in my lifetime, that is a pity. Perhaps future generations may have better options.

  • That melts my head. We have STV which is much better than the shite two party system that fptp brings. And YET.

    (For Westminster yeah, the above applies)

  • See above re. Headache. That’s what the country is and what it gives you. Are there any other counties (democratic or so-called democratic) who have terrorists in government. It makes no sense but here we are …..
    moaning for NI!
