At least Jim Shannon is using his influence at Westminster for good things. Putting a motion in to honour Dolly Parton on the 50th anniversary for one of her songs  ::)

Deliberately done to try and deflect from the resounding defeat of the WF vote. Taking the people for fools.

Rather than deflect, somehow it reminds me they made tits of themselves.

Taxpayers are the fools not Jim Shannon.

It's his voters not tax payers. These pricks know how to milk things unfortunately.

More theatrics.

DUP could safely vote against the WF Bill today in the knowledge it would safely pass, they can now tell the electorate how hardcore they are. Hard to see Stormont up and running again anytime soon as the DUP will likely be looking some secondary legislation passed in the HOC in regards to safeguarding NI's place within the UK, as the withdrawal agreement superceded the Act of Union. They'll be pushing to legally nail down what the Stormont brake will look like in practice too I'd imagine.

Varadkar was quoted in today's Irish Times saying that Stormont can probably be reopened without the DUP.

Oh flip. That'll get the hackles up of the low-brow knuckle-dragging king-loving irish-hating loyalists.

The DUP tore the arse out of it

The DUP has bigger fish to fry. Jim Shannon is busy going round Westminster trying to get support for his Early Day Motion to mark the 50th anniversary of Dolly Parton's song 'I Will Always Love You'. You couldn't make it up.
Careful now
