Sinn Féin now is the Official Largest Party.
Of course the DUP hate them, refusing to form a Government. PM Sunak must sort this pup a Temp Government. |

The DUP are rightly losing out now as Sinn Fein rightly rise. The DUP only stand for themselves and hard-line supporters of the unionists. Not for the whole people of N Ireland |

well done Sinn Fein, they should take the helm now with the DUP in opposition, if they can't make a joint arrangement work that is the only way forward

Successive Con PMs have in my view run after the DUP long enough to accommodate them. Democratic Unionist Party. Democratic, they make a joke of anything as to democracy. I can't see a Con governnent however imposing a governing scenario in N.Ireland to further upset the DUP. Jeffrey Donaldson is like a pathetically whining schoolboy. |

"I can't see a Con government however imposing a governing scenario in N.Ireland to further upset the DUP."
An Emergency UK government would take over, because of the DUP blocking a Government It is Temporary until the DUP co-form a power. Local People are suffering, Joey. The DUP can shout away but a N.I. Government has many things it must do, right away. |
