The ‘yer havin’ a laugh section’

NAOMI Long took top spot at Belfast when she was elected Lord Mayor of Monday, the first woman to hold the post in 30 years.


In an astonishing show of taking the proverbial p*** the DUP and UUP rounded on her saying that as she was also an MLA she shouldn’t be double jobbing and that she couldn’t do both jobs and should focus on one or the other.


Which, by any stretch of the imagination must mean that any MLA who was also an MP (and some cases a councillor too) can’t do both (or all three) jobs.


That logic also means that for years every MLA who was a councillor, MLA and/or MP wasn’t focused on their job…no wonder they had such a difficult time getting any decisions made at Stormont!
