A more dangerous or toxic political partnership than the Conservatives & DUP would be hard to find.
The NI of 2018 is not the NI of 1998 or even 2016.
DUP never signed up to GFA and Tories are happy for it to be collateral.Brexit is destroying NI thanks to DUP & Tories #Brexit https://t.co/90KOLBwbhW

Donald Trump changed all previous understandings of what would be acceptable, or disqualifying, in a presidential candidate, writes @JamesFallows. Brett Kavanaugh is doing the same for Supreme Court candidates: https://t.co/PqdkjR7IpT

Yes, Mr. President, it is horrible that you "fell in love" with one of the most brutal dictators in the world today. Its worse than horrible. Its sick. As a proud American, your words about "falling in love" with any world leader, let alone KJU, embarrass me. Stop it. https://t.co/zSzbN5dISS
