Tory Story
The DUP say that they were left on their own in a Westminster committee this week voting against 50/50 recruitment to the police. When the Draft Police (Northern Ireland) Act 2000 (Renewal of Temporary Provisions) Order 2010 was put to a vote, all the other parties, including the Conservatives, voted in favour. The DUP now want UCUNF candidates to spell out where they stand on 50/50, with the Ulster Unionists who oppose it or the Conservatives who voted for it?
This is just a taster, no doubt, of the many thin ends of the wedge the DUP will be seeking to insert between the UUP and the Tories as the election looms closer. Although weren't all three of them chatting about maybe becoming one in the not too distant past?
