Arlene Foster walks out of Poots ratification | Impartial Reporter

IT HAS been a week of turmoil for the DUP since Edwin Poots was ratified as the new party leader last Thursday. Tensions within the party were clear to see as outgoing leader Arlene Foster left the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Belfast before Mr. Poots’ inaugural speech. She was not the only person to make for the exit as other senior figures – Sir Jeffrey Donaldson, Gavin Robinson, Lord Doods, Diane Dodds and Gregory Campbell – also left the hotel. The first resignation from the party was made at the doors of the Crowne Plaza as Paul Bell, a DUP member for 20 years from Fermanagh and South Tyrone, Mrs. Foster’s home constituency, announced he was leaving the party after the party’s treatment of Mrs. Foster.

East Antrim MP Sammy Wilson, speaking on The View, played down any significant opposition to Mr Poots, but said he did not know why Mr Donaldson, Mr Dodds, Mrs Dodds and Mr Robinson left the meeting early. Mr Wilson said: “It went on long because we’re a democratic party, we give people the opportunity to say what they want to say. Some of them say it sensibly, others say it a bit more sharper than others.
