    Tayto are from Ulster? What are the cheese and onion from the republic in the blue bag? Hard questions!

    Anyway, Alex Atwood. I know I don't pay enough attention to NI, but honestly, the name doesn't even ring a bell. :(

    Another Alex Attwood here, which I reject wholeheartedly.

    He's just too wet tbh & I like to think of myself more of a man's man, just like Arlene Foster.

    David Ford of the Alliance Party. Knew I'd be a middle-class liberal one who just wants everyone to get along. :)

    Ah jeez Alex Attwood is a fairly well known lad I'd have thought.

    Despite the seriously protestant/unionist sounding name, he's SDLP.

    The vast majority of Irish people I've spoken to like the Ulster/norn accent. Not all of us have a shouty Paisley tone.

    Donegal accent was voted sexiest in Ireland, I live an hour east from Donegal and don't sound overly different.

    Tayto in Northern Ireland is a completely different company to Tayto in the Republic.

    'never heard of him' is probably a pretty high compliment for Alex Atwood. Most of the ones people have heard of are disgraced, batsh1t mental, or raving sectarian bigots. Not that the three terms are even mutually exclusive in a few cases.

    Attwood

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.
