Clearly some unionists are willing to vote for a nationalist party. Maybe that's to keep Sinn Fein out of Stormont - then again, maybe Sinn Fein wouldn't seem so detestable to unionists (especially the younger ones) if their platform wasn't so stubbornly one-sided.
I'm sure a lot of protestants could be convinced that Sinn Fein is a decent party with decent policies if they just sold themselves better.

@zoozy15 That's not to mention that Sinn Fein MPs accept pay without actually sitting in the Commons.
-
Most likely just sinn fein propaganda nevertheless were I up the north I'd definitely vote for sinn fein the other alternatives are horrible.
-
funny how you are complaining that they went to iraq paid by british money, sinn fein dont mind being paid by the british government at stormont, or all the wee non workers up the falls collecting the queens money, if they are so called 'proud nationalists', they wouldnt do that.

What a shower of scum

well the answer to the question is that those 6,000 vote tactically to ensure sinn fein do not win the south down MP seat. the unionist minority community in the south down constituency see the sdlp as the lesser of two evils - they aren't fussed on the sdlp becuase they come from a nationalist background but they sure as hell will vote anyone else in for MP to keep sinn fein away from winning the MP seat for south down.

@ajuk1: Well it's either the lesser of 2 evils or the fact that they actually want to have representation in Westminister
-
The only one i really support is durkan. Richie has no leadership and by god i wouldnt vote in martina.
-
Could it be tactical voting in a area when only the SDLP or SF can win?
-
SF = Taxation without representation.
SDLP will wipe the floor with SF in Assembly election here! South Down would be fools to put Ruane back in to destroy our education system FURTHER!!!

@THEFEASTOFTHEDROWNED really, the SDLP vote has been in decline in every election since the last decade, the only way they could hold onto Westminster is with teh assitance of thousand sof Unionisst voters, even the the stoop mouth piece the Irish News sstated on saturday May 8th that the SDLP could lose one of their assembly seats! SF will wipe the floor with them, the SDLP are a joke!
