UUP Leader Doug Beattie

This quite remarkable. Doug Beattie was for a time the most popular leader in Northern Ireland.

Upper Bann is all to play for. Lots of speculation here in Magherafelt that Doug Beattie, UUP leader, could be in trouble.

The challenge is coming from Alliance’s Eoin Tennison. A gain west of the Bann would be a BIG win for Alliance. pic.twitter.com/Lu7yZ1TPkk

The nets at St Paul’s GAA Club in Lurgan, Craigavon, Northern Ireland

UUP MLA Doug Beattie had hit out at St Paul’s Gaelic Football Club for changing their netting to “depict the Irish Tricolour” and in doing so “marking out territory”.

The club has now defended their new nets, re-iterating that they – along with the club’s new stand – are in keeping with the club’s colours.
