The DUP will vote against the government's Brexit plans in a vote in parliament on Wednesday.
, builds on the Northern Ireland Protocol, which led to significant disagreements between the UK and European Union .They had "unanimously agreed that in the context of our ongoing concerns and the need to see further progress secured whilst continuing to seek clarification, change and re-working that our Members of Parliament would vote against the draft statutory instrument on Wednesday".
More details of how the so-called "Stormont brake" aspect of the new Brexit deal for Northern Ireland will work are due to be published later on Monday.
The DUP's decision to vote against the government's new Brexit deal for Northern Ireland is a powerful statement of integrity and commitment to the people they represent. Brexit NorthernIreland DUP Click my profile plz
Sure, they didn't even read the deal. The idea is just to vote against
Ever ensconced in your gerrymandered statelet we all knew all along what your answer would be DUP. No co-operation, no willingness whatsoever to recognise your fellow citizens as equals, still less to sit down with them now you're the second placed democratically elected party
How dare Jeffrey Donaldson & the DUP claim to represent the citizens of NI - they represent about 27% of the electorate, a voter base who will never share power with nationalists and seem to be against making NI work as an economic entity instead scrounging of the UK taxpayer 🤔
They won't serve under Sinn Fèin
BBCPolitics
EmmaVardyTV What a surprise NOT
Couldn’t they invite him to Buckingham Palace to twist his arm ..
Th DUP are not economic unionists, they do not care that the protocol is good for the people and economy of Northern Ireland, they prefer to suffer the consequences of a damaged economy in the mistaken belief that it strengthens the union with Britain.
Brexit means brexit, don’t know why a small minority of people think they can change that or dictate where the rest of the U.K. goes
A minority party who identify as ultra British. More British then you can shake a stick at. Yet they will hold up a trade deal to aid 70m brits and yet will tell you its because they want to be in the union and this trade deal takes away their Britishness.
The DUP clearly have no real interest in the people of Northern Ireland. So why are they allowed to exist as a political entity if they continue to ignore democracy.
Dup has never stood for the Ni people, time the Ni people boot them out
I am waiting for Scotland to Vote for independence and then realise they need a new Hadrians wall.
Should get them out - stop paying their bloody salaries if they ain’t working they shouldn’t be paid! Pathetic
That puts Windsor framework straight in the bin
The DUP just found out that Rishi Sunak isn't a protestant.
But JRM told us it was time to turn the ovens on as the deal was ready for cooking. Looks like things have now been burned
Considering NI voted to remain. The DUP dont really represent the will of the people of NI.. do they?
A bunch of selfish individuals using politics to hold ransom a whole country and letting down in the process the people of Northern Ireland. They won’t accept any resolution for power sharing and I sincerely hope they’re not getting their salaries for just sitting on their arses
Get to work you little bigot. Sir, my hole.
DID YOU EXPECT ANYTHING DIFFERENT
EmmaVardyTV The DUP. Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory (again). WindsorFramework
EmmaVardyTV Never 🇮🇪
Ireland will continue to stagnate.
DUP always says NOOOOOOO! Unless there's a nice sweetener...
Brexit really is the gift that keep on giving
Trying to look surprised.
“No, no, never, no”. Perhaps they’d prefer reunification.
Northern Ireland would be so Much better off without the DUP
Hardly breaking news, we knew all along they had no intention of accepting it for motives that are beyond the so-called ''Irish Sea Border'.
NI has the deal that the other's haven't. The DUP are willing to screw it up because of their bigotry. They are not serving the people of Northern Ireland well.
Shocker! DUP SAYS NO! Didn't see that coming!!
Then send it back to the people of NI... Hopefully the DUP will lose even more seats. Is there anything in the GFA that outlines what happens if the DUP have no seats?
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This is a good opportunity to make DUP irrelevant.
What a shocker!! They simply won't work under SF. Just get the unification process underway and that will be the end of it and save us £15bn a year 👍
Avoiding their duty to help to set up proper governance
How long can this crowd be allowed to hold NI to ransom?
Surely, they are not holding out for a further £1.5 billion .
BBCPolitics Cost of living increases everyday, low income and unemployment is crumbling our economy and our society. The best way to defeat this is getting extra income by investing in Crypto and stocks. Invest with a legitimate source and avoid getting conned. Invest with Hithermann123
Brexit keeps on giving
It's a shame that the D U P rejected the government over the Brexit deal .its time the government stand up the D U P and say work with us or the UK government will pull out of Northern Ireland and let it be united Ireland, letting the E U sort out the fall out
Why don't we just give this crap hole back to Ireland. Job done.
Easy fix why doesn't the government put the framework to the people of NI
Any bets on NI getting a whack of money thrown at them in the next few weeks by Rishi to bribe them into accepting the Brexit deal? Bribery in our language!
I'm shocked .
Shock horror.
Whoever said Windsor Knot was spot on
Rightly so, cant have a foreign power dictating what we ship to part of the UK. EU needs to be kept out of NI
How surprising
DUP represent 21% of the NI electorate. They are a minority party. The British should not be bending over backwards to accommodate them and should instead listen to the MAJORITY of NI who support the Protocol and don’t vote DUP.
Hardly a Shocker. Of course they haven’t started shaking Rishi down the way they did May. And he’ll fold. Like she did.
Not surprised, their consistent intransigence will eventually sideline them and all that goes with that.
KEdge23 whoops, not all going to plan is it. So much for getting things done.
These people need to be frogmarched int Stormant and told to do their job or get arrested for taking money they’ve not worked for.
Wow, that’s such a shock. And by coincidence, this means they’ll still have an excuse to not take part in Stormont. Toys and prams. Ranting, shouty bigots
BBCScotlandNews Oh this is a surprise. Not. They were never going to accept the deal. They were never going to power share. Bunch of old dinosaurs.
The DUP have been told what to do by their English paymasters and as usual they do what they are told . Cowards .
For context: The DUP are a minority party who represents less than 1% of the UK electorate. In Northern Ireland they represent about 12% of the electorate.
They will just push the people of Northern Ireland to vote for independence and then they’ve shot themselves in the foot !!
The DUP are a shouty minority party of crackpots.
Seems like they're not interested in being in any union. Guessing they're holding out for another 1bn?
As they have zero interest in the union
Surprised!?....a spanner in the works from the DUP as usual. The DUP becoming more & more irrelevant in N.I politics, all self-inflicted. People are fed up with DUP intransigence/old politics. Expect Sinn Féin to gain from DUP inflexibility.
Why has it taken so long - it was obvious the second the Windsor deal was made the DUP would say no
They bring a bad name to Northern Ireland. They have NO problem saying YES to picking up their salaries every month for doing Nothing for the betterment of Northern Ireland
It's all the DUP ever do, say 'No'. Watch now, the ERG headbangers will follow them too.
What a shocker
As predictable as a chocolate teapot. Wasters.
It was never in doubt. 😂🤡🇬🇧💩
Another attempt to break the GFA!
It'll still pass.
Of course they will. Anything to stop having to share power as the minority
Is this still the 'Oven ready' plan?
No real surprise there !
What a surprise.
BBCPolitics Bears, woods, Pope, Catholic, DUP, NO
BBCNews : This is a mistake by the DUP to reject the Windsor Framework on a package that brings fairness to the EU & Northern Ireland. Prime Minister is supported in this deal and Storemont needs to function not be stopped by a CUL - DE - SAC. Backward step!
The DUP is the biggest hindrance to the development and stability in Northern Ireland and indeed the UK. Its time for all who believe in Governance to move on, the people want it. Leve the antiquated belligerence that is the DUP fight among themselves. They always want an enemy.
No surprise there. They’re not doing it because it’s the right thing to do, they’re doing it because they can’t stand the fact they’re no longer the largest party at Stormont.
duponline Conservatives Well no surprise there then. The DUP don’t want peace for there nation, there people and prosperity for business! There afraid of power sharing and come the next election they will be wiped out!
Of course, as expected. The DUP will never enter NI government with a Sinn Fein First Minister. They simply cannot fathom playing second fiddle to a 'Taig'. They would rather direct rule from Westminster, which they see as emoldening the Union.
They will lose the vote so who cares - they are a minority party!
Ignore them - they are a non-functioning party and will be depleted by the next election. Thank heavens. dup NorthernIreland RishiSunak
Surprise Surprise
They are still sulking because they didn’t win the election ….
Wondering why 1690 ?
And they will lose Why are you giving such prominence to a minority that will lose?
Border poll 🇮🇪
Computer says no. Doesn't matter because unlike Teresa may you have nothing to blackmail this lot with
Dinosaurs
Time to give that land back to Ireland. Rishi, u r more than welcome to relocate the neanderthals.
Hey Rishi, have you not sussed out those neanderthals yet. There is no way they r gonna share power with SinnFein at the helm. Brexit is their saviour in this.
DUP should have thought before propping up Theresa May for a billion quid
I'm so surprised by this 🙄
Long past their sell by date these lot and blood pressure jim. Time to consign these lot to history.
One more step towards political oblivion.
Tell me again what the D in DUP stands for?
Prehistoric bigots just don’t want a SF First minister.
'DUP vote against weather and Mondays ' Why ? Because they can.
What a surprise
nickeardleybbc Oh, good gollygosh, who would have thought it?! 😏
What's going on with the charles bronson parole hearing no one covering this
I never thought they would. They are horrendous people.
Lol.
DUP needs to be voted out by people of NI.
Yawn. These guys say 'no' to everything. Rishi should just hurry up and tell them, they're doing it and that's it.
Selfish as always. DUP politics before the needs of the people.
Typical......they don't know how to say yes to anything !
DUP say ‘Niet’ and then ask what the question is
Dear DUP Thanks for taking over 3 weeks to tell us, you religious weirdos
Oh, what a surprise.
Shock horror,
I feel for the people on N.I.
The DUP are grossly irresponsible
💔💔💔💔💔💔
Brexit will forever be in the UK news because it failed & the problems will only get worse.
Shocker
Of course they will, divisive bastards...🤬☹️🤦🏻♂️
The conservatives normally bribe the DUP with a few billion
Of course they will
Religious fundamentalist minority Party threatens to hold UK Government, that underwrite Northern Ireland to the tune of £15billion per year to ransom.
Lmfao
The DUP do not care care about the people of Northern Ireland and never will When it comes to the DUP everything is always about their self interest They are happy to let us suffer for their incompetence and stupidity over brexit They are not fit to govern FucktheDUP
Good, why should we be any different from England, Scotland and Wales. It’s what we voted for.
Of course they will, they have no interest in' power sharing 'if they're not the senior partner.
Time for the BG to stop pandering to these bigoted crackpots and cut them loose if they ever want their own country to move forward..
bbc5live How long will the voters in NI put up with this intransigence?
Time to progress & oust the DUP!!!
bbc5live Grow up dinosaurs, and get back to Stormont 🇮🇪 🇪🇺
The DUP lined up to attack Unionists who don't vote against the WF
Brutal ….. is Tyler still on board ?
Made sure to get the American trip in first . Never miss out on a few quid eh boys
And you are surprised? Why can’t they just be honest.. they don’t want to play second fiddle to Sinn Fein.. waiting out for election hoping for majority.. this wee country has so much potential and they are making us a laughing stock.
Hardly breaking news I could have told you that a nano second after it was released
breaking news water is wet
No to Fenians. No to democracy. No to the one thing that could prolong the union - economic prosperity
In a move that’s shocked absolutely no one….
As per usual they're not happy unless they're the authoritarian leaders. Yet people will vote for them? They're killing their own party
OK then. So every DUP MLA can give back every penny they have been paid since they brought down the executive 👍
Just hand them the rope, and they'll do the rest. The DUP's actions only accelerate Irish reunification.
Not exactly a coupon buster..
No surprise
Here we go again. Get DUP and Sinn Fein out of all politics in N Ireland. Drain the Stormont swamp.
If we gave the DUP a 'no' jar and forced them pay into it every time they said no to something, the public coffers would be minted.
This sort of also confirms that the DUP won't re-enter Stormont as well.
Of course they will
NO WAY
