Just read the thread on Slugger O'Toole's site about Henry Reilly standing as a UKIP candidate in the forthcoming Assembly Election. There is a nice comment about him:
Quote:
10. Strange. I met the guy a few times when I lived in the area and I marked him out from most of his unionist peers because he seemed to lack the unconscious sneer that winds up nationalists so.
I also came to the conclusion that if Norn Iron had had unionist politicians like him from day one things might have been a little different.
Of course, that was years ago, before the UUP became as fashionable as asbestos.
