Orange and Green politicians sometimes find it incredibly easy to come together, especially when it’s to stop progress. In May a joint letter was sent to every Westminster MP, signed by the leaders of the DUP, Sinn Fein, the SDLP and UUP opposing plans to extend British abortion law to Northern Ireland. Ironically, when it comes to a woman’s right to choose the Unionist parties are at one with nationalists in rejecting British rule in Ireland. read full story / add a comment

"It really doesn't matter, it's going to drive you completely nuts." read full story / add a comment
