DUP won't back Brexit deal 'while it poses threat to integrity' of UK

DUP leader Arlene Foster has told Sky News her party is unable to support Theresa May's Brexit deal while it"poses a threat to the integrity of the UK".But she said there were still too many problems to allow her party to support the deal.

In a statement, the DUP said they had had"good discussions" with the government and that"some progress" had been made on domestic legislation. They said all concerned"recognise the need to ensure that as we leave the European Union the economic and constitutional integrity of the United Kingdom is maintained".It adds that the deal cannot be supported because there have not been"necessary changes" to the backstop.

The statement adds:"The backstop if operational has the potential to create an internal trade border within the United Kingdom and would cut us off from our main internal market, being Great Britain."

Thought MPs were the one causing a threat to the UK?

They are a bunch of hypocritical, bible bashing dinosaurs! What about gay marriage and abortion then. Why not totally align with the mainland? Don’t think its fair to pick and choose

Legends

Sooner we have another election to get rid of her and her goons influencing parliament the better, she needs to return home and give Northern Ireland citizens the same human rights as the rest of the UK which she says NI should have the same agreements with the EU

Arlene? Funny name for a bloke.

DUPleader We had given up on democracy... You are a shining beacon... God bless you!

billion pounds is more important as if and when maybot resigns the billion pounds deal goes with her

Finally an MP thinking of what's best for the UK rather than their own personal agenda

duponline the choice of the loyalist terroist.

May's deal risks casting Ulster adrift in the EU without British support and with no seat at the table. The DUP could never stomach that surely. Yet so called Unionist Tory MPs prepared to risk such a scenario

I luuuuv democracy, Assad don’t know what he’s missing. But are we there yet EddieHearn ?

They can be blamed for the civil war that’s looming then, along with ALL these POMPOUS ARROGANT POLITICIANS

How is this a surprise! They want remain.

MikeMol1982 Glad to hear DUP have concern for UK. Maybe they should consider this:

Look like May may need to shake that magic tree 🌲 💵 if she want them to back her up but it disappears when we need more police, nurses, firefighters and teachers.

Well at least they're coherent...

Will you be asking for your bribe money back theresa_may ?

The DUP more loyal than our own.

Good

A group with integrity unlike the BBC, sky, ch4, it and our government

DUP are basically saying that they will rather REMAIN! Because that is the only guarantee that NI will not be treated differently. Except with a No Deal and Borders - and that will also break an International treaty. Double speak!

Do they explain what integrity in particular?

We will see what happens when they are bribed again with another billion pounds..all mps are selfish and only it for their own gains

Brexit is on its last legs.

But a few extra quid would allay those fears

That’s because the Deal at hand is the issue!! Not who the PM is. All this time, the PM didn’t get the backing simply Bacchae the MPs believed the deal at hand is toxic to the future of the country. At least, that’s what I hope is the reason for this mess.
