Sir Fred and the MLA
It's been brought to my attention that both the Evening Standard and the Daily Mail have identified Sir Fred Goodwin as a client for New Century, David Burnside's PR firm.

Looking at the success of Adams and McGuinness it is understandable why Walsh is following in their footsteps.

NO DOWNSIDE IN SEEING THE BACKSIDE OF BURNSIDE
Contrast the indiscipline in the UUP, exemplified by Burnside, with the control wielded over individual MLAs by the leaderships of the other Parties.

No other Party would tolerate the blatant self-interest exhibited by Burnside.
Time to take control, Sir Reg. Otherwise, kaput for the UUP.
