Ian James Parsley on the Northern Ireland Election (or not)

This time on Lydia Talks To... I catch up with previous guest Ian James Parsley, a Northern Irish political commentator. This is a shorter version of the Podcast to get a grip on a very current news story- the elections in Northern Ireland. Or not, as the case may be. On Friday 28th October it was thought that Northern Ireland Secretary Chris Heaton Harris was going to call an election since the deadline to restore a power sharing government had passed. But he then didn’t. Last year I talked in depth with Ian James Parsley about the Northern Ireland Protocol. Ian, it should be noted is a member of the Alliance Party and married to an Alliance Member of Assembly. I go back to him again and again because he’s a level head and has a knack for nuance and bringing in the context, which as you know is so important to me.
