That's maybe enough for a politician over here. Lol. There aren't very many of them that actually bother doing what they're meant to do.

No point complaining about politicians. It's a democracy. We get the leaders we deserve.

If I say I don't agree with a democracy it isn't going to change anything. So why do I deserve Arlene or Marty? Bit harsh!

qwert_yuiop

You specifically don't. We, the voters, elected these people. If we think we'd do better, we should stand.

I didn't vote for either of them, and never will. Others did. That's what's irritating.

I think she's going to hang on. Sinn Fein seem to have backed off. She could always agree to stand aside if the shinners allow their finances to be examined? Prepared to eat my hat of course.

Zola.

Agreed ! Think the same..

So Arlene has now decided to play the gender card.


She thinks calls for her to step down are misogynistic. Due to her being a woman.


No Arlene, it has nothing to do with your gender, it is because of your utter incompetence and inability to do the job at a very basic level.


To say it's because your are a woman is pathetic.

Zola.

She is a complete fool. She is getting desperate now. Like a cornered rat, this maybe her last card to play?

As long as her partner in government allow her to continue, the other parties can do very little about it. Since shin seem to have rolled over, probably in dread of eamon McCann and co snapping at their heels, she's safe.

Speaking of which, I think eamon McCann is right on the fundamental flaw in the system being the institutionalisation of sectarianism. No doubt he's in the market for working class Protestant voters (and who could blame him?) who feel the dup are there to serve the interests of the wealthy. I'd like to see him score well and shake the system up a bit.
