It was of course Mr Uncles who attempted to solicit financial support for the English Democrats from Sinn Fein and stated that he supported SFs policy of seeking a united Ireland.
Mr Uncles recently has shown himself to have difficulty in distinguishing various forms of nationalism, but of one thing we may be assured: he supports nationalism Provisional IRA and Sinn Fein style, but not civic nationalism for the people of Northern Ireland, whom he would happily hand over to the Republic without any consideration of the principle of self-determination
