Ian Paisley Denies £100K Sri Lankan Holiday Claim
http:// www.bbc .co.uk/ news/uk -northe rn-irel and-411 98118
From the above link ::::: "The Daily Telegraph said he recently met Sri Lankan officials to discuss the possibility of post-Brexit trade deals with the south Asian country"
I am at a loss to understand how anyone could spend £100,000 on a 2 weeks holiday anywhere, let alone Sri Lanka. But if he did, why did Sri Lankan pay for it ?
Also, can someone explain what there would be to discuss, between Belfast and Sri Lanka, in a "post-Brexit trade deal" ?

Ulster politicians have a taste for exotic holidays at others expense.
The Official Unionist, Lord Laird, was caught in a sting some time ago promising to influence fellow members of the Lords in return for holidays in Fiji.
I can't see why they don't follow their constituents example and book a mobile home for a week in one of the many caravan sites dotted around the coast of NI.

Not read the details, but it isn't unreasonable for one area of the UK to try to establish good relationships with elsewhere in the world to encourage international investment/trade to their area.
Why Sri Lanka would be willing to fund it, is another issue; but if they did then presumably they considered it a worthwhile investment for them also.
