PAISLEY AND TRIMBLE WANT TO TALK...



The past few days have seen DUP Leader Ian Paisley and UUP leader David Trimble engage in some public debate that they want to "talk." Why? Trimble had no interest in talking to anti-Agreement Unionists when his Vichy Party held the whip hand. Now that is no longer the case, and Trimble has been sidelined by the emergence of the DUP as the dominant voice of Unionism. As the Euro-poll draws near, and rumours of a UUP melt-down at the polls circulate, we can perhaps nunderstand why Mr. T suddenly is seeking a few headlines to show us how ready he is to talk. Antything to save Jimbo. The DUP are RIGHT to ask him exactly WHAT did he agree to last Autumn? What CONCESSIONS did he provide? I think we should be told!
