Wonder if can reflect on what david said, what sjeffrey donaldson s options are, whether he can bring his party members along with him? i agree that he has put himself in a difficult position, and i think that is because the dup really didn t leave themselves any room for manoeuvre, and the dup really has mixed messaging. they have given indications that they may be one some reforms in the windsor framework, but for a long time, the indication was that they wanted it completely gone. which, a lot of supporters now think that nothing less than that is acceptable, and whether they can bring the supporters along, i don t know. i don t know if he is preparing them for a climb down, don t know if he is preparing them fora climb down, i don t know if he is preparing them for a climb down, i don t see him softening their language. they are devolutionist, they do want the assembly back, but there is maybe a difference between the westminster mps, who are more keen for the assembly to go, and t

It places us under the jackboot of the eu, and we have been effectively held hostage in an economic united ireland. goods carried over the irish sea on ferries from britain undergo new checks when they reach these shores, which is perceived by some unionists as severing northern ireland s place in the uk and is disrupting the functions of many businesses. attempts to make the arrangement simpler has put the uk government at loggerheads with the eu. the eu has shown no flexibility and it s very disappointing that what we re hearing is that the eu is already saying it won t show any flexibility, and that s why it is absolutely right that we, as the uk government, are very clear. we want to get a resolution on this with the eu, but we have never taken anything off the table in terms of resolving this issue for the people of northern ireland. while this persists, the dup has said it won t go back into the power sharing executive, which sinn fein argues holds everyone to ransom. a fundament
