Empey New Ulster Unionist Leader.

Some good news- I am very glad McNarry got the boot and Reg seems like a good guy.

1. "a senior negotiator of the Good Friday Agreement" sounds hopeful

But the poor man has his work cut out for him; the UUP is in quite a bit of disarray.

2. He sounds like an pretty good choice....

but, will he be able to reenergize the UUP? As much as I hate to admit it, I think the voters have spoken. At this point in time there is no middle ground. If PIRA disbands and the DUP keeps up it's stalling tactics maybe ol' Reg will get a chance.
