        Perhaps a more apt headline would be “90% of voters in ‘devout Christian’ North Antrim constituency decide that he might be a CORRUPT, AMORAL, DISGRACED MP, but at least he’s a Protestant one.” There is no hope for this place.

        Paisley could shite on the heads of his constituents children & they’d believe Sinn Fein was responsible 🤷‍♀️

        Maybe so Elaine but where are all those who didn’t vote for him? It’s fucking depressing... why not get off their asses or at the very least post a vote? Such laziness, such apathy, Democracy sucks sometimes!

        If this is the best we can do, if we are happy to accept this man representing us, then Northern Ireland deserves everything it gets frankly.

        Why could 10% not be raised? Because the campaign was led by SF, a party of hypocrisy, a party of bullying, a party of corruption, a party that has no records, all summed up by an elected official who broke the law and then tweeted #integrity. #ShameFein

        Fucking pathetic. Voters deserve a shitty MP like him if they can't even be bothered to remove him when the chance arises.

        North Antrim is a strange place. No wonder NI doesn't work if this s***e is tolerated. I suppose he can hang about and help with the reputational damage to the DUP. Hope the govt collapses with one vote.

        Madness that even proven fraudulence doesn’t end with recall. Corruption is not good for democracy.
