This is how many voted for the DUP in the 2017 General Election called by May, it gave the DUP huge influence over Brexit and EU policy.

Instead they rejected May's Brexit, which would have kept NI in the Union, and instead backed Johnson.

Johnson scrapped the backstop and instead proposed the NIP, which is now renounces.

The DUP believed him.

Earlier this month, the DUP collapsed the power sharing agreement, expecting huge support from Johnson. He hasn't mentioned it.

DUP leader, Ian Paisley Jr said:

“He should not shut up about it until the issue is resolved,”

“There is a fear that the Conservative and Unionist Party which governs this nation is actually an English nationalist party."

“That it’s not concerned about a border in the Irish Sea, but about a ’Red Wall’ on the island — the mainland island — and that’s what eats them up every single day.

“And if that is their only concern, then the government is betraying the Union and the unionist people.”

Well, duh!

If the DUP has only just learned this, then it is a good thing, but that it has taken 100 years to see the Conservative Party this was shows how slow some things can move.
