DUP leader Arlene Foster has confirmed that in a House of Commons vote tomorrow, the party's ten MPs will oppose the Brexit deal agreed by British Prime Minister Boris Johnson and the EU.

Yesterday, following marathon talks in Brussels, European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker said he saw no need to delay Brexit and Mr Johnson urged British MPs to come together and "get Brexit done".

Taoiseach Leo Varadkar also said that EU leaders unanimously endorsed the Brexit agreement at the summit of EU leaders. Writing in today's Belfast Telegraph, Ms Foster is critical of the Brexit deal and says Mr Johnson agreed to greater than necessary checks between Northern Ireland and Britain.However, at the beginning and end of the article, Ms Foster states the party wants to get Northern Ireland moving again.Ms Foster states the last three years have been "tough on our public services but also on relationships. The need in Northern Ireland for all sides to work together is great.

Given the public way the DUP found itself left detached from Mr Johnson yesterday, in relative terms, her article could be viewed as a considered response.EU leaders unanimously endorse Brexit agreement

Does anyone know what they spent their 2 Billion hush money on that Theresa May gave them?

Its the last weekend that NI still has a ban on abortion & marriage equality. It changes October 22. And there's not a damn thing DUP can do about it

morningireland This is the GFA that the DUP opposed.

morningireland Consent? The people of NI didn’t consent to brexit. They voted remain.

morningireland I hope you all know the dup ahead never signed up to the good friday agreement, its ironic that the are trying to use it now

morningireland Changing the name to the “Ulster Veto Force” would be more appropriate going forward

morningireland Principles of consent has been an anathema to the DUP since their formation.

morningireland Creationists

Not enough money offered yet?

morningireland What's he quoting the Good Friday Agreement for, his party didn't sign up to it, they will always find some excuse not to agree.

morningireland Jeffrey Donaldson is delusional.

What a happy couple almost defunct now body language ls sad and dower. Nice boating jacket.

morningireland The principle of consent that J_Donaldson_MP feels is absolutely crucial is the DUP veto that he was bragging about last week so any pretence about adhering to GFA principles is a joke, he also told us that he knew what Johnson was going to do & was confident of his support.

morningireland 'stakeholder' sympathisers.

morningireland It really is hard to take these DUP shysters remotely seriously. The days of Unionists ruling the roost in NI are looooooong over J_Donaldson_MP and they’re never coming back. You FINALLY going to put your name on the GFA - seeing as your waxing lyrical so much about it now?

morningireland The DUP don’t even support The Good Friday Agreement

morningireland The DUP will say anything.

morningireland What exactly do the DUP want. A hard border and them fully in control of all Northern Ireland? That’s the way it was before the troubles. Is that what they’ve after.

morningireland There’s a difference between consent and veto. DUP want veto cos too easy for them.

morningireland 😂😂😂beyond parody. Only consent they give a fuck about is their own.

morningireland Tá an toil tábhachtach ach amháin i gcás go dtarraingíonn a Ríocht Aontaithe Tuaisceart as an Aontas Eorpach in aghaidh a thola.

Of course they will it’s No to everything except bigotry

morningireland ⬇️....!

morningireland

morningireland Can’t wait for this evenings Callans Kicks!! olivercallan 🙀🤣 Also look at those faces n try not to wet yourself!!

morningireland He means the principle of duponline consent, not that of nationalist, Catholics, LGBTQ community, equal rights campaigners, etc.

morningireland You'll always find me in the kitchen at parties...

morningireland

morningireland Most of the people of NI voted against brexit. What's that about consent?

morningireland 🤣🤣🤣🤣

morningireland Ginnet

morningireland Tossers!!!!

morningireland This is what happens when you sell your soul to the Devil..

morningireland For a party that was vehemently opposed to the Good Friday agreement this is some turn around

Witch

Well the 2 billion that the UK can ill afford was well spent. DUP should get some great free holidays deals and not need to worry about fuel bills for a long. 🤬🤬🤯

Stomping with self righteous indignation like a brat 😂😂😂😂

I smell a rat!

Why do these ppl make the news here🇮🇪 they’re totally irrelevant & they’re opinions mean nothing here🙈

If you said the sky was blue they would say it was red, no point arguing with these 1690s drum beating flag flyers

Seriously-is there anything positive about the DUP?

They wont take responsibility for the brexit mess they created. They didnt take responsibility for RHI scandal when they stole 500million, and no responsibility for ulster resistance they set up to murder innocent catholics.. No claim No blame.

Leo Thatchar will beg Arlene Fraudster coz if goes thru FG Bullshitters, Liars & unprofessional biased media will claim it was down to Thatchar. Tommie Gorman in union jack undies, Arlene Fraudster fan club & RTE's Political Psychologist (Bullshitter) stated 'DUP never lie to me'

Of course the DUP will oppose it but they had to had talks with the uvf/uda first just to prepare for an election

Doubt he needs them...

They’ll chant NEVER, NEVER, NEVER at Parliament

Show me the Money👍

Hell wont be half hot enough for them!!!

Until they get another pay off

This party does not speak for the majority of Northern Ireland, why do they have so much influence on the decision...... let’s hear from the Majority in NI who I believe support a deal!

No way?

There’s no good outcome for them.
