Allister to be proved wrong

The News Letter’s political editor, Stephen Dempster, revealed the DUP team for the exertive this morning.

He has also got wind of a cunning plan hatched at DUP HQ designed to “take the sting” out of Mr Allister’s claim that the party allowed “ the lure of office” to cloud it’s judgment – they are thinking of rotating ministers.

Can anyone explain to me how letting more DUP MLAs have a turn in a ministerial seat disproves Mr Allister’s claim?

And will all those who hold executive positions, regardless of how short their time in office is, be entitled to a ministerial pension?

On the up side, Mr Dempster believes that Edwin Poots could be in the running for a place on the executive. Given that he is “ a capable pair of hands on issues such as agriculture and the economy” I’m sure that he will be able to lead us out of any political Maze.

Let's hope Poots doesn't have any say in the football stadium decision. He's been pushing the ludicrous Maze site for years when it should obviously be in Belfast.

Poots is so poor it's unbelievable - he has the wit of a slug and the brains of an amoeba.

Not fair - I think Poots has a lot of potential.

And I can't understand whats the Belfast objection to the stadium in Lisburn is - just confirms the impression that NI and Belfast in particular is full of whingers.

I support a stadium outside Belfast. But I DON'T support the retention of a shire to terror just beside it.

"Not fair - I think Poots has a lot of potential."

LOL!
