, as party leader and Northern Ireland’s first minister—that is, joint leader of its devolved assembly—he said: “I would assume that at some stage it may well happen to me.” Prophetic words: after just 21 days in office Mr Poots was on his way out, too.
That led to a fatal gamble. Mr Poots needed the DUP’s nationalist arch-rival, Sinn Fein, with which it shares power in Stormont, to ratify his choice of first minister. Sinn Fein demanded a price: enhanced protections for the Irish language that are opposed by many DUP members. The issue threatened to bring down Northern Ireland’s assembly.
The DUP’s next leader—almost certainly Sir Jeffrey—will struggle to reimpose party discipline. But a bigger challenge will be dealing with. That was the price for the Brexit Mr Johnson chose, which takes Britain out of the EU’s single market and customs union, but in effect leaves Northern Ireland in both.
All this is happening at the point in the year when it is most likely to inflame tensions. July 12th is Unionism’s biggest festival, with marching Orangemen celebrating the victory of William of Orange, a Dutch Protestant, over his rival for the English throne, the Catholic King James, in 1690. The Orange Order will “look at what action we’ll take after the 12th”, says Mr Gibson. Options include protests and breaking off relations with the Irish government.

Festival? Dear, dear. Parading their bigotry in the streets, more like.

Easily settled. Give Ireland back to the Irish.

Billie Eilish Issues Apology for Mouthing Anti-Asian Derogatory Word'I am appalled and embarrassed,' the singer wrote in an apology posted to her social media. Ok but there’s 0% chance that at 13/14, she had “no idea” that “ch*nk” was offensive. Oh gosh. I would understand if she had called someone that to their face that it'd be a problem. But she was singing a song? For god's sake, it's not that deep.
