THE question that needs to be asked of Portadown District is a simple one: Why Jamie?Jamie Bryson has walked into so many lampposts in his relatively short and hilariously colourful career that the Department of Infrastructure would probably have billed him for repairs by now were it not headed up by the DUP. Everyone has their favourite Jamie moment and the quotes and the clips are rolled out with savage predictability by his online detractors every time he declaims squeakily in the public square. To be fair to him, he seems relatively unfazed by the negative attention. If I took a battering like that every time I opened my mouth I’d have abandoned Twitter years ago.
