25th April.

Main Street, Larne. Stewart Dickson MLA, Alliance candidate in East Antrim. An Alliance veteran of a “churchy” Presbyterian background, Dickson was in local government and behind the scenes in Alliance until getting elected to Assembly in 2011.

Will he stand for Assembly in 2016? Only Gerardine Mulvenna a serious candidate to be nominated there …but do Ian Parsley and Paula Bradshaw have a home in the constituency?
