    I always remember the late Ian Paisley being interviewed during the RTÉ Saturday Night Show many years ago. That show had a different “celebrity” host each week, and daughter Rhonda Paisley was hosting that night, with her father as the last guest on as far as I recall. It was a light-hearted interview that showed the humorous side of Paisley, not hitherto seen. No doubt there was some behind the scenes engineering in that, in the era before a visible peace process.

    Which should never paper over the terrorist he actually was.

    Nordies are nearly always dour, bad-tempered and belligerent. Wouldn’t expect Mrs Foster to be any different.

    You're going to get a reputation for drive-by insultings Johnny.

    Wasn’t intended as an insult, Tom. More an accurate observation based upon experience.

    Why does your Mother wear makeup and perfume?

    Because she's ugly and smelly.

    Don't get upset now, petal.

    You see public women get attacked in this way all the time on this site. I forgot I was in AH (Adolescence and Hormones)

    My bad. :)

    How easily you’re taken in. This is why we’ll eventually have the union flag flying in Dublin again.

    May as well fly the Serbian flag, if you're seriously advocating that any expression of political ideology that runs contrary to your own should be censored by a State broadcaster.

    A bigoted, homophobic, sycophant to the very worst traits of English Nationalism.

    Arlene Foster is the scum of the earth, Northern Ireland and Ireland as an island would be much better off without her.

    She is critical of Sinn Fein's relationship with the IRA but at the same time is pictured with and attends regular meetings with Loyalist paramilitary groups. A complete and total hypocrite. A self serving charlatan. A liar. An incompetent one at that. Someone who truly holds back progress at every juncture.

    That’s her job, that’s why she was elected.. to help maintain the status quo in Northern Ireland. That’s all Unionists are interested in. Whomever follows her, the same, those who preceded her, exactly the same. Progress is change, change Unionists don’t want, therefore ‘progress’ is going to be stopped and blocked at every juncture....

    I was very impressed with her, she's true to her Christian beliefs, and she's true to her culture & her Identity as a Northern Unionist. A strong leader...
