Edwin Poots is a deluded politician

As someone from the unionist community I regard Edwin Poots’s comments on ‘The funeral of the Good Friday Agreement’ (GFA) the words of a delusional politician.

Who does he speak for? The majority of the people of Northern Ireland voted for it by a massive margin. I voted against it but I unlike Poots I accept the democratic vote.

The days are long gone when the DUP could dictate with their own brand of unionism. He belongs to a party rife with splits and division. No leadership and we can not forget he currently holds the record of the shortest serving leader of the DUP.

His party rejected him and now he thinks that he can tell the people the GFA has to go.

Those other delusional ones in unionism, elected and self appointed spokespersons are hopelessly living in the past believing in their own egotistical minds and personalities.

The people decided to accept the GFA, like it or not, and Edwin and his tiny band of cohorts will never be allowed to tear up what the people voted for.
