Election called in Northern Ireland says Washington Times

Election called where? -Why you shouldn't believe what you read

United Press International distributed the story below. The link will presumably disappear when they realise what they've reported is a mish mash of real and imagined stories.

It's interesting to see what they think is believable.

When Bertie shows up in Washington every year, do they have a clear idea of who he is? Do they know where Ireland is?

More importantly, is our news about the rest of the world so unreliable?

(In other news, the President of Scotland announced that the French elections can be cancelled if the Socialist party don't agree to support the bin tax, say sources in Baghdad...)
Prime Minister of Ireland, Andy Pyle, has announced extra rations for the Royal Irish Constabulary

Election called in Northern Ireland
http://washingtontimes.com/upi/20070429-080323-7135

Published: April 29, 2007 at 8:24 AM

BELFAST, Northern Ireland, April 29 (UPI) -- The president of Northern Ireland, Mary McAleese dissolved parliament Sunday as Prime Minister Bertie Ahern announced an election next month.

The move came after Ahern met with British Prime Minister Tony Blair in London, Sky News reported.

However, in a joint statement issued in London, Ahern and Blair said the proposed May 24 vote could be called off if a power-sharing agreement wasn't reached by Ahern's Fianna Fail party and the right of center Progressive Democrats in the 166-seat parliament known as the Dail.

"If at any point it became clear that parties were unwilling to fulfill their commitments ... and support for policing, it would be unreasonable to expect the people of Northern Ireland to continue with an election to an assembly which would not exist," the statement said.

Ahern is seeking a third term in office, and a report said the race is expected to be close.

Hard work on their behalf has ensured voters on the celtic fringe are looking to the best of their achievements in the last five years and expecting to capitalise on both Basque and Polish minority votes in the traditional homebase of former UN commissioner for Climate Research Bartholomew Ahern whose foreign policy blunders are being blamed for the implosion of his party the SDLP.
