UUP and Tories to consider relationship

Thursday 24 July 08

It is silly season in politics however this story has the ring of truth about it. It seems that Dave would like to go to the next stage in the relationship with the UUP. He has been quoted on the topic of a new political force that is Conservative and Unionist as saying "People in Northern Ireland that maybe haven't gotten involved in politics in the past, can think 'Yes, I could join in.' It's a nation-wide party, it's part of the Conservative movement, I can get involved in that.".

There will be a working group set up to consider the partnership which will report back in October, Northern Ireland awaits with bated breath....
