Passing through
Although the lap top worked like a dream at the Labour conference, I wasn't able to get any wireless connection at Manchester airport so wasn't able to give you the update on the Labour membership in NI vote. If you haven't read it elsewhere on our website, nearly 90% of delegates rejected the Islington North proposal.
Also since I wrote "Stateside" Jeffrey Donaldson has declined to pick up the "Peace Dove" award with Gerry Kelly, apparently in protest against the Sinn Fein minister's conrtibution to the ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ Maze jail programme "Breakout".
Stormontspy asks if I am going to the Tory conference. The answer is yes, I shall be keeping an eye on the UUP-Conservative courtship and putting the stopwatch on David Cameron to see if he gives us more time than Gordon Brown. All this to-ing and fro-ing makes me feel even more like a blow-in as I pass through Belfast.
