If it weren't for Americans voting for Trump, British people voting for Brexit would be the most insane thing to happen in the last 10 years.

Both campaigns were run on the same platform. Lies. Nothing other than lies.
And yet, many who voted are too stupid to admit stupidity https://t.co/cTb2eORGTe

Meanwhile…
DUP is facing widespread criticism for plunging Stormont into crisis by pulling out Paul Givan as First Minister. Other parties accuse it of collapsing the Executive for purely selfish reasons.https://t.co/9qdN7vDX7o
— Suzanne Breen (@SuzyJourno) February 4, 2022
Having listened to Paul Givan's speech & Sir Jeffrey Donaldson's statement, I'm still not clear why DUP is walking out of Stormont at this moment. What changed from yesterday afternoon? Or last week? No link made to Poots stopping checks – & failing because officials said no.

I’m finding it really hard to see campaign material focused around the wilful collapse of our government. Government isn’t a political tool, it’s a means of delivering for the people you serve. Using the office of first minister as a self-serving mechanism is deplorable.
— Sam Nelson (@samnel84) February 3, 2022
DUP decision to crash Stormont is about political maths, not morality. It's a desperate attempt to win votes & seats in Assembly election.The most important character in the drama isn't at Crowne Plaza gathering – Jim Allister has driven DUP to this placehttps://t.co/CtbzWA9MLz

Sammy Wilson letting the cat out of the bag it seems on @BBCgmu that this DUP stunt is 'the last kick' to make it look that the agreement that is going to be reached by the British Govt & EU is down to the actions of the DUP. Shameless party self interest over the needs of people

Nail on head.

Actually, as a matter of fact, we’ve heard far too much from the DUP, versus the size of its mandate.
And not once during that time did it reach out and show any concern about “consent”… https://t.co/9xguBwqIIH

They care about whether they’ll still have a job next year.
We’re still living in a pandemic.
But yeah, the NI Protocol.
