| 1638971586735665164 | @iainmartin1 “Or if Sunak’s policy on stopping small boats is judged a failure, Farage may run candidates in English coastal seats & complicate the election.” Coastal towns? Its not just coastal towns @iainmartin1. The concern is in every town, city and village in country | 27 |

| 1638971571057356812 | @iainmartin1 “The GFA of 1998 was an imperfect compromise.” Yes it was. But it was at least a compromise. All sides gave up something. ROI their constitutional claim on the 6 counties. The UK any say in the future constitutional position of NI. | 24 |
| 1638971585091497995 | To be fair to @iainmartin1 he at least recognises that “There are caveats, of course. The two main parties may leave a vacuum for an insurgent force by offering too little choice, on economics or reform” A vacuum? You think? | 23 |
