The UUP and the Tories have just released statements confirming that David Cameron will attend the UUP conference on December 6th.

So apart from working out what to call the new political force, the parties still have to work out which leader gets top billing.

If the UUP issue a statement it is unsurprising that their Leader's quote is first. Likewise the Conservatives.

It demonstrates what the coming together is - a pact, not a merger, with both parties retaining their leaders as is, and working together for the betterment of the Union in elections.

Should that not have read "political farce"?
P.S. Don't mention the grammars in front of Dave Reg.
