Sinn Féin's Independent Vote in Belfast
I think just under 7% of our councillors in Northern Ireland are actually independent, which is small fry when you compare it to the Republic of Ireland and across the water. I want to bring in Paul McCusker, who is running as an independent in Belfast - he did very well under the SDLP banner four years ago. He should be very well placed to get re-elected. And again, he'll be the first actual independent elected since 2011. Frank McCrubery, was there previously, who's now with the team? If he gets re-elected, pardon me. So 1.8 quotas. The party will be very disappointed that he's not running for it this time
