Northern Ireland: Democracy and the DUP

Somehow the DUP mamanges to put about the fake news that it speaks for the majority in Northern Ireland. It does not. In the 2017 general election it won 36% of the votes cast. In the 2016 Brexit Referendum Northern Ireland voted to stay in the EU by a significant margin, 55.8% Remain –  44.2% Leave. The DUP is a Leave party, in a Remain nation.

The majority of people, organisations, businesses and voters in Northern Ireland want to stay in the EU and are opposed to the ridiculous and unworkable new deal  submitted by Boris to the EU, who have already rejected it. There is no democracy anywhere to be seen.
