NvTv – Blog Talk

For those that didn’t catch this on slugger.

Apologies for the delay in getting this up – it’s a debate I took part in, focusing on local Councils and councillors and how they interact, or not, with rate payers and the general public, as well as a discussion on education and the SDLP and UUP call to have the Executive deal with it.

It’s well worth a watch.

SDLP Bloggers Breakfast (well 10am)

Tuesday, May 12th, 2009

Alban Maginness - the SDLP’s European candidate has invited me, and every other blogger who can get along, to a ‘bloggers breakfast’ in Dukes Hotel, Belfast. The purpose: to see for the first time the SDLP European PEB – which has been launched on youtube before being aired tonight.  

SDLP 2009 PEB

The room was full, there was a great atmosphere, considering this was, I believe, the first event of it’s kind in the north.

As a blogger beside me said ‘ This is a bit of a coup for the SDLP.’ I think that statement maybe summed up both the nature and substance of the event (although there was a slight technical issue with the sound for a second or two!!).

I’m sure others will give their thoughts on the event on sites such slugger, and their own personal blogs, later, and the reporting of the event should make for interesting reading.  

Alban’s blog also went live today. And his website has been up for a few weeks.

The message is simple: You haven’t had a pro European voice in Europe for too long now, We can win: and When We Win, You Win.
