Anyone Voting In The Upcoming Election?

I got Allisters election poster in the post today and he's pulled out 2 rabbits out of the bag, which certainly will shake up Jim Nicholson and the "Ulster Conservatives and Unionists - New Force". It mentions that he's gained support from 2 Tory MEP's Dan Hannan and Roger Helmer.

Dan Hannan says, "Northern Ireland is tremendously lucky to have Jim Allister...he is a champion of the whole of the UK, not just for Ulster, a genuine patriot, a tireless defender of our national interests. Jim Allister is Northern Ireland's best friend in the European Parliament."

Roger Helmer says, "With his analytical mind, Jim Allister, in a few sentences, can expose the Lisbon Treaty as the charter for EU super-statehood, which it undoubtedly is. His presence in Parliament, not just as a great ambassador for Northern Ireland, but as a leader of Euro-scepticism has been invaluable. I hope very much we shall continue to work together in the next European Parliament."
