'But there are no guarantees energy payments would have been delivered any quicker if an Executive had been up and running.'

DUP statements on the delayed £400 energy support payment as the months have passed by have appeared increasingly more desperate.

But with no sign of the money, which was due to arrive in the form of an electricity credit, DUP MP Gavin Robinson accused the UK government of "manufacturing excuses". It is the flimsiest of commitments and of little comfort to those families who may be relying on this payment to keep warm over the festive period.

Yeah but I bet the same people will vote for the DUP again. This countries electorate are a joke and disgrace

Lies

The DUP are morally and politically reprehensible. No I’m not catholic or religious in any way.

brendanhughes64 I’d disagree with that assertion the money was first announced in February, DfC was able to get money out quickly to certain groups no reason to think DFP couldn’t overseen a scheme with money delivered by now. That DUP can’t run a dept doesn’t mean rest of NICS is as poor

Concentrate on the headline and then prove it wrong and make smart comments. Imyno dup follower but exec is a joke, 300m not spent yet 600m overspent, yep they would have sorted it.

The DUP is like bad sex, just keep banging the one area and forget there’s so much more that needs attending to. Helpful tip Jeffrey, maybe if you start focusing on more than one thing it’ll get it coming sooner 😉😉

3 stooges.

duponline liars getting bent over by the British Government. They literally have no friends now!!!
