AS election videos go it’s somewhat out of this world.
Capitalising on the hype around the forthcoming Star Wars film and the recent Star Wars Day on May 4, Sinn Féin’s Gerry Kelly tries to channel The Force in his bid to take the North Belfast seat at Westminster from the DUP’s Nigel Dodds.
We’re not sold on Kelly’s acting skills, or why Stormtroopers would be disenchanted SDLP voters, but it’s almost as enjoyable as the politics-heavy Star Wars prequels.
But one question remains: could Kelly do the Kessel Run in less than 12 parsecs?
