    The fixed term parliament act is now a bad joke.
    What opposition will ever vote against a GE?

          I was thinking of just borrowing a few of yours to save some cash. Aren't they just decorative?

            I don't know anyone who's too fussed either way. Looking forward to see your neighbours take the same live-and-let-live approach.

              Most of the 1,851,600 people did not vote for the 10 who took the bribe.

                Looking at the stats, 292,316 voted for the DUPe candidates, so their votes cost £3420.96 each - close to 1000x the rest of the UK.

                  I'm pretty sure the DUP won't be just handing it out to their voters.

                    FTFY.

                    I'll be intrigued to see how and where the money gets spent.

                      I'd imagine Stormont will decide should it ever get back up-and-running. A third is already being eyed-up for what's known as the York Street interchange. Just in case you're interested :
