Jeffrey Donaldson expected to warn of collapse of Stormont unless Northern Ireland protocol scrapped
The Democratic Unionist party leadership is expected to signal its willingness to walk out of power-sharing in Stormont if the Brexit Northern Ireland protocol is not scrapped.
Just days after the Brexit minister, David Frost, announced the UK would not “sweep away” the controversial arrangements, which involve checks on goods crossing into Northern Ireland from Great Britain, the DUP’s leader, Sir Jeffrey Donaldson, is expected to warn that the Stormont institutions could collapse unless more radical moves are made by the British government.
