I haven't seen any comment on the
Northern Ireland results.
David Trimble's Ulster Unionist Party was absolutely destroyed last night, going from six seats to one, killed by fanatical Catholic-hater Ian Paisley's Democratic Unionist Party, which climbs to nine seats. Sinn Fein picked up a seat as well; the moderate nationalist SDLP gained one (from the Protestants, because the UUP and DUP split the vote) and lost one (to Sinn Fein) to stay at three.
The DUP rejects the Good Friday agreement, Trimble resigned as head of his party after losing his own seat. Anyone have a clue what might happen next? I can't imaging Paisley agreeing to share power with the nationalists.
