The next leader of the DUP will be the last

Does it really matter who becomes the next DUP leader, deputy leader, first minister or milk monitor?

The only certainty is they will be the last DUP first minister.

The likely ‘winner’ Edwin Poots is against the Northern Ireland Protocol but implements it, suggests that there are advantages to it but is taking legal action against it.

Confused?
