Clinton is coming but who is going
So Bill Clinton is flying in from the failing presidential bid to celebrate a decade since the signing of the Good Friday Agreement. I am told the key players are all invited but despite my best efforts I can see very little evidence that many of those who were part of the talks have actually been asked.
I am sure the organisers have their reasons but it is bizarre they appear more interested in getting the DUP along when they were not there on the day. All feeling a bit like a Clinton celebration rather than an acknowledgement of the tremendous acvhievement of those who negotiated a new beginning for the North.
Congrats on the polblog nomination - might see you there
