Theresa May shuts down DUP on protocol by reminding them they killed the only deal to avoid a sea border

  1. The DUP overplayed their importance during Brexit. The DUP have now received their comeuppance in the most recent NI elections. Ireland will be united shortly.

    How sad for the DUP. Into the waste bin of history for them.

  2. “It’s undermining political stability in Northern Ireland”

    Ah yes, it’s the protocol undermining the North’s political stability. Not ole Jeffie and the boys, no siree Bob. They certainly aren’t throwing their toys out of the pram and holding the assembly hostage until they get their way. Nope! It’s the protocol that’s doing all that, all by itself.

  3. Cannot see how someone can stand there and lie with all to see and nothing be said, “it is harming our economy” they can have the best of every world in their position, “it is driving up the cost of living” the cost of living is going up everywhere, “it undermines political stability” you are undermining stability. Get Stormont up and running and talk and debate like a normal government. Hiding away in this cowardly fashion helps nobody.

  4. I always find videos of politicians from Northern Ireland in Westminster absolutely hilarious, you can tell everyone is zoned out just waiting for the randomer from across the sea to finish and leave

  5. The protocol offers the north the opportunity to be akin to a singapore in europe.

    No other place in the world has access to both the EU and UK markets with virtually no or at the minimum piecemeal restrictions. The EU is the third largest economy in the world with the UK around the fifth.

    The DUP are quite happy to throw that kinda prosperity out the window for their so called heritage.

  6. She made the mistake of trying to maintain some rationality lol – these guys are like children with their tongues out in the political ball pit in McDonalds.

  7. Nobody in the UK gives a monkeys about NI. I remember talking to some girls there that didn’t seem to realise Ireland is partitioned.

    It’s not on the radar of UK people, they’ve enough crap going on in their own lives.

  8. Anyone watch I’m a celebrity every time I see wee jeff he makes me think of the time dev took the piss about Dennis wise being small. ‘Little Jeffery Donaldson he’s a very small man’

    Anyone he forgot to mention the majority of MLAs returned to the assembly support the protocol.
