I voted UUP in 2015, the female candidate but she didn't win. England voters are lucky because you have a wide range of options.
You don't mean you're voting DUP? There's as wide a range of options in most NI constituencies too, or do you mean unionist options?
Alliance are a credible pro-union party in NI. They don't have the DUP's dodgy business links, nor their far-right Christian fundamentalist leanings.
The DUP are pro-brexit against the majority wishes of Northern Ireland. They're anti-marriage equality and have abused a petition of concern to block it passing (and many party members have been openly homophobic). For years they blocked blood donations from gay men and challenged their ability to adopt children. They won't update archaic licensing laws, again against the wishes of the majority (according to polls). They oppose women's rights, particularly when it comes to abortion. They want a conscience clause to give Christians legal protection to descriminate based on their beliefs. Ministers have asked for creationism to be taught in schools and exhibited in museums, alongside evolution. They've shown intolerance towards muslims and minorities - former leader Peter Robinson supported Pastor McConnell's tirade against muslims, and also backed protestors who forced a Nigerian out of his council house. Robinson's wife said that homosexuality was an abomination and that gay people could pray the gay away and be cured of their sin, all the while she was grooming a teenager for sex and unlawfully got said teenager financial backing for his business venture . Sammy Wilson was caught on camera saying 'you're absolutely right' to a person on the street who said 'we need to get ethnics out.'
They consistently say and do things that would result in any other elected official in the UK finding their position untenable, yet they motor on without acknowledgement or apology.
The only reason UKIP hasn't taken a hold in Northern Ireland is that the DUP have that ground covered already. If anyone in the conscience can vote for such a despicable party when other less corrupt loyalist parties exist, then it's hard to think of them as anything more than a bigot.
