The deficit will take longer to eradicate - it's not rocket science.

Labour were also proposing to retain this spending!

You do realise this refers to stuff from 30 years ago?

Have a look at a map of Ulster that denotes the divide between constituencies that returned SinnFein-IRA MPs and those that returned DUP-UDA/RHC MPs. There's a clear divide between East of the Bann and West of the Bann.

Have a look at where all the nice infrastructure is in NI. Motorways, that'll do to illustrate the point. Look at how all the motorways are located in the Orange East of the Bann.

Talk about spending on infrastructure, health etc is fine words indeed. Who wants to bet on the outcome on the ground? My bet is all the goodies are headed East of the Bann.

The Conservative Party is a disgrace, proving to be enabling sectarianism rather than an honest broker.

My first thought was actually that NI has probably been relatively underfunded compared to Wales and Scotland in recent years. Cardiff had a big spruce up about 20 years ago for sure. So, is it all that bad that a bit of money gets invested in the country?

Is that completely wide of the mark??

Ah, so these are the ex terrorists and muderers you. were refering to.
At last.

Not at all, it's the reason as to why N.I is now getting the funds that stinks.
As stated earlier, fair play to N.I, as long as it goes to all it's communities,

So when you mentioned that the word "ex" was important in regard to terrorists,
who were you referring to?

An ex-terrorist is someone who was a terrorist but who has since renounced terrorism. Is this really that hard to understand?

Where exactly did I ask what constitutes an ex terrorist?

The point you seem to be missing is that May is cosying up to party that has terrorist roots in the past. Corbyn was cosying up to active terrorists.

So the situations are quite different.

Oh no, all this spending is completely unworkable and absolutely must not occur. That's what the Tory party was saying... yet another u-turn. Poor Theresa is behind all the crop circles.

FTFY..


More prevarication from yourself.


I'm missing no point at all. I was asking you to explain a particular part of a statement that you made. You instead replied with an answer to a question I never asked. Deliberately.

Does this mean that women in NI are even less likely to get access to an abortion? This is 2017, yes?

No, the law hasn't changed with this agreement.

Yes, this is still 2017.

Where have those statistics come from?

If either earnings or inflation are rising by more than 2.5% anyway then ending the triple lock saves nothing.

The income level when winter fuel payments are withdrawn has not been announced.
