NI21 Party 09/05/2014 Party Election Broadcasts for the European Parliament

'There is no consensus on anything.

'And do you know what?

'That's what's wrong with this place...'

-It's your move.

-OK.

-So, who's that, then?

-That? That is Basil McCrea.

Is he the one used to be the newsreader?

No, not him. It's the NI21 thing.

NI21? Is that a new road down south?

Or a strain of avian flu?

No, it's a new political party.

A new political party? Another one?

I know. As if we don't have enough!

We have the UUP, the DUP, the PUP, TUV,

we've the Shinners, the Alliance, we've got UKIPs, we've got the Tories

and that other one that's led by the doctor.

-Doctor who?

-Exactly!

So NI21, what are they about, then?

-Well, Declan at work...

-Declan someone?

Declan someone, he says they're the political future.

But your man off the telly, Alexis Kane,

he says they're useless.

Alexis Kane. Never heard of him.

Haven't you? He thinks all our local politicians are useless.

Well, they are, aren't they?

I mean, what do we need a new political party for?

To freshen things up. So people realise

that while Sinn Fein and the DUP hold all the power

-Northern Ireland is stuck in the past.

-What do you mean?

Well, they can't agree on anything. That's what's holding us back.

So, NI21. Are they unionist?

Well, they're happy to be part of the UK,

but they're for what's best for Northern Ireland.

And get this. One of them? One of them is, you know...

What?

Well, he's, you know...

One of, you know!

-What?!

-One of them ones!

A woman?

No, not a woman! Will you s...?! "A woman!"

A very successful European businesswoman, as it happens.

But no, she's...

(She's from the other side.)

She's a ghost?

What political party would put up an ethereal being as a candidate?

Unless you're the Greens, of course.

No, she's, er... she's one of them 'uns.

No way!

-Seriously, mate.

-Ah, that's just not right!

-Exactly!

What gives them 'uns - women - the right to come in here

talking about economic benefits of us maintaining our place in Europe?

Talking about...inequality, jobs,

our failing health service?!

The environment!

Things that matter to real people.

I know. It's a total and utter disgrace. And get this.

She says she's proud to be NORTHERN Irish.

Northern Irish? No way!

Exactly. Ridiculous, isn't it?

-Although we all do like that boxer fella.

-The one from Tiger's Bay?

And the golfer. What do you call him?

And your wee man, does the adverts. Loads of money. Can't act.

Know who you're talking about.

Maybe she's right. Maybe we should all be proud to be Northern Irish.

-Aye, that's all well and good, but what's her fleg?

-Ah, for f...

CONTINUOUS BEEP

In Northern Ireland today, there's so much more to think about than

flags, parades, and whether or not there'll ever be a united Ireland.

NI21 are the party of change.

We've delivered a road map as to how that change can be delivered.

We need you, on May 22, to come out and vote for NI21,

to support that change that we so desperately need to see.

NI21 is a new political movement

for people who are proud of being Northern Irish,

celebrating our diversity and building a common future.

Some of us have taken a risk. We've done what's right.

Now, it's up to you. It's your move.

On May 22, help us build a better Northern Ireland. Vote NI21.
