They are terrified of the tories for some reason

Arlene Foster who last week claimed that the EU's decision to trigger Article 16 was an incredible act of hostility, now wants the UK government to trigger the same article 16. She wants Unionists to unite and not turn inwards on itself over Brexit, well she would given that she presided over the decision to turn down Theresa May's deal which would have avoided a sea border.

Hard core unionism yet again chasing the hollow short term victory but yet offers absolutely no vision for what it actually wants. Just batten down the hatches, recoil into themselves, they are becoming more insular with each passing year. Similar to the last Westminster election, the last week has shown yet again how they are led by the hand by loyalist paramilitaries. They are willing to use the shield provided by these loyalist thugs in masks whenever it suits them. I also find it bizarre how they are willing to be shafted time and again by an English nationalist Tory government and they will be used by them again for their own political games with the EU.

Wee Arlene is an opportunist. She is not strategic. Her Brexit strategy of no no no ended in disaster with the Sea Border and polling of 20%. She is attempting to stand up.to the Single Market now. Should have gone to Radio Rentals

For the DUP it will fit them well going into an election, that's them sorted again. Covid will be forgotten about
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

Yep, losing their bitterest wing to Allister meant they had to out extreme the TUVs.

We're going to bring home the SAM

It'll be interesting to see how the TUV do at the next election - have they anybody else apart from Allister?

That poll panicked Arlene into the 5 point plan for sure.  Now they'll be back in as the housewife's favourite.

Poots and in fact both Unionist parties are being told by the Orange Order what they must do. This is what the Orange Order is about, this is their sole goal.
Make no mistake where the orders are coming from.

It is great to see Simon Coveney stand up for northern nationalists.

For far too long southern politicians ignored us, letting unionists and the orange order tr**p all over us.

Yep. Btw, He's only pointing out basic facts. All huff and puff from Arlene and co but no alternative bar a renegotiation of the entire Brexit agreement.
        Boris and the conservatives could not give one shite and would sell them down the river again and the mugs would be happy enough to go along with it.

Mark Carruthers wiped the floor with Arlene tonight.

He should have threw in the curve ball question when the GFA was being talked about...."Arlene do you support the good Friday agreement...yes or no. Boom she would have choked.

Yeah, he caught her well with the high percentages in the maunfacturing companies' survey.

He nailed her on the most important point - it's all about the constitutional issue and f*%k all to do with trade and business etc.

The simple fact of the matter is the DUP wanted the biggest Trump style wall they could get between the North and the South. Brexit was going to be the thing to put those pesky Fenians back in their box and they could revel in the glory days again of lording it over them. They put the house on Brexit delivering that and it has backfired in predictable fashion.

Arlene was destroyed on The View tonight, and great to see it.  She hadn't a leg to stand on when Carruthers exposed her and the DUP for what it's all about ... feck the businesses and livelihoods, it's all about the constitution and them remaining ultra-British.  They really are pathetic.

The nationalist side has been working together all through the Brexit pantomime. It took a lot of work to get Barnier to understand the importance of not having a trade border between Donegal and Throne.
