'Guarded optimism' as Brexit deal may be within sight

One source spoke of "guarded optimism", while a second has confirmed that text on a possible deal is taking shape, but added "we're not over the line yet".

Elsewhere, Taoiseach Leo Varadkar said the talks are "moving in the right direction", but it was unclear if it would be ready in time for the EU summit later this week. The move follows a 90-minute meeting last night between British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, DUP leader Arlene Foster and DUP Deputy Leader Nigel Dodds. This evening, Ms Foster told RTÉ News that any Brexit deal had to respect Northern Ireland's constitutional position within the UK and the issue of consent set out in the Good Friday Agreement.

The DUP leader said she was not moving away from power-sharing and she wants it to work and to see the Assembly back in place but this has to happen in a way that respects unionism and nationalism.

None of these were ever an issue. Dup tried to use the same old trick but less and less people prepared to follow like sheep.

Can’t stand this silly backwards cow. How the people of NI tolerate her is beyond me. She’d happilly see NI burn to the ground and revert to the 1960s, rather than compromising. NI needs a new, progressive, modern leader.

She’s changed her tune

Now she likes the GFA. Pick out the bits you like disregard the rest.

They opposed the GFA, now there quoting it as the reason to there objection.

The unionists never agree on anything from the 'UK' government, from 1914 and home rule to the 1918 general election. The union is all they care about and they only pontificate the majority when it's suits. The majority wanted an independent Ireland ,

The GFA that they never signed up to...

Arlene will do as she's told..

Ans she also said that they are a Pro Life party and make no apologies for protecting the life of the unborn..RTE bias put back in is box by this brilliant politicans

Ask her how many tweets has she deleted?

The Good Friday Agreement that DUPleader and duponline vehemently opposed and campaigned against? BrexitShambles

DUP can and will be paid off.
