Protestant vote test in Belfast election sparks tension
Vote counting began in Belfast as the mainly Protestant district of South Belfast sought a successor to Reform Unionist MP murdered last November. Official Unionist Rev Martin Smyth faced Paisley ally William McCrae, a gospel singer who leads a Paisley-linked “third force” faction in Magherafelt, amid calls over anti-Catholic lines. Gerald Tuite, once Britain’s most wanted man for IRA campaigns, was arrested in Drogheda as counting started.
