Carson says that he sees UKIP as an alternative to sectarian politics in Northern Ireland. That's pretty much what I said in November last year. One commenter on the Belfast Telegraph website said "I don't like that they believe the Scottish and Welsh assemblies are essentially pointless. A United Kingdom should be a United Kingdom, not a Kingdom dictated to by London". Pretty much what myself and many other members have been saying for some time (not to mention most English, Scottish, Welsh and Northern Irish people).
