    Or better still, have a look at Sunningdale and compare with the GFA. Same deal. The SDLP were pushing that template of power-sharing for 30 years before PSF clambered aboard the sense train.
    As Mallon himself said, Sunningdale for slow learners. And there were few slower learners than PSF.

    You'll upset the PSF crowd. They think the world revolves around them.

    Result to be announced Friday - could be sensational - President Ahern a dead cert and an "up yours" to the tribunals!
    Sounds like a rumour: look at this page.

    You do not see a power-sharing assembly as the answer...so what is?
    BUt there is no sharing going on. SF and DUP are at it again with no work being done by the politicians, just fighting. There is no power sharing and no peace in Northern Ireland, when will the masses wake up to this fact and realise the truth?

    Bertie didn't win after all, bummer. I guess an honest, down to earth man-o-the-people wasn't good enough for those elitists.



    Take a look at that man, he is one of us, he has balls.
