Paula Bradshaw: DUP now can’t get enough votes to win South Belfast

Other parties who are less confident in their own message are engaging in tactical pacts designed to further their own self-interest.

This does, however, have a fortunate consequence here in South Belfast — the DUP cannot possibly now get enough votes to benefit from a split in the Remain candidates’ vote.

So the choice is now simple — do you want same old same old politics of the past, or the new politics of a united Alliance team confident enough to offer its progressive, pro-European and inclusive vision to everyone?
