Is Brokenshire offering another election to help out his mates in the DUP? Could be worth £5m of our money to him and the DUP?

Depends if there's enough time for a DUP/UUP pact! I can't see another election solving much...Prods turn out to regain supremacy, Taigs turn out as they're in with a sniff of being in the driving seat. As you were? If there's no agreement after that, is there a 3rd election??
Brokenshire comes across as a little Englander knobend who knows nor cares anything about this place, but its a cabinet post to further his career.
Brokenshire was one of Theresa May's favourite junior ministers in the Home Office when she was in charge. His role as SoS is his reward and he is directed entirely by May's requirements which include a majority vote on any issue.
