The DUP treacherously led Northern Ireland into mandatory coalition with Sinn Fein


They treacherously led this country into a mandatory coalition with Sinn Fein back in 2006.

It was they that wanted it to be the largest party to be the lead. Now they find themselves with the Shinners breathing fire down their necks, having shamefully lost that majority unionist veto.
Back in the early 1970s its leader’s pronouncement to my late father, Billy Spence, that “one day he would be prime minister, he would be another Carson” has now resulted in what we have to suffer — a mandatory government alongside apologists for unrepentant terror.
Shame on all of them for continuing to shake hands with the devil.
