It’s pretty clear that May has no idea what she’s dealing with in the DUP. She clearly judges them by Tory standards, ie: if the bung is big enough, there’s nothing we won’t do.
Whereas what she was asking them to do, in endorsing a ‘solution’ that would bring a United ireland a step closer, is like asking a vegan animal rights activist if they wouldn’t mind popping down to the abbatoir with a bolt gun as you fancy a big juicy steak.
May has shamelessly pandered to the idealogical nutters on her own backbenches, yet these lot are ten times worse
The fact that she couldn’t see this is yet another example, if any were needed, of how totally out of her depth she is.
Anyone who’s spent any time in NI knows full well that there’s no way on earth they’d evergo along with this! Unlike her, when they say there are red lines, they seriously bloody mean it!
