Yes I know it is an article from the Newsletter! It is up there with reading an article from the Daily Telegraph!

Where the author argues for mandatory voting to be introduced to help the Unionist turnout in After their disastrous campaign at the local elections to get their vote out.

Does he not realise that mandatory voting would help all parties?

Belfast News LetterJohn Coulter: Unionists should ditch liberalism and push for mandatory voting​​​​​​​By John Coulter

@jacqui76 I feel like I got mental whip-lash reading that. Right through to the last sentence it’s a right rollercoaster. 🤷🏻‍♂️

@MarkMaguire

I know what your saying Mark. I struggled to understand what he was getting at.

Other than, it's not fair, we aren't in charge anymore. Plus those Catholics have got ideas above their station! So we need to do something to return us to pre 1969 Northern Ireland.

@jacqui76 There’s a real sense of trying to drive forward at speed while exclusively looking in the rear-view mirror. Real ‘make pre-civil rights NI great again’ energy.

@MarkMaguire

Massive sense of entitlement from some in . We were always in charge and we want it back. Plus we will only share power if they are in control.

Political Unionism needs to wake up and quickly. They have to realise that they aren't taking us back. The voting public is changing.
