The DUP or, as it should be known, – the political wing of the Orange Order – has been supporting the Tories in the UK Parliament for years.
It’s nothing new.
The big difference is that now this hard-line, extremist right party has the Tories by the balls as they delight in their role of “rescuers”.
Remember – the DUP has been holding Northern Ireland back and to ransom for decades as they proclaim their “Britishness” is being “chipped away” by everyone else in the UK, Ireland, the EU and the world
Here’s some of what the DUP believe
There are big changes ahead :
London will be under Direct Rule from Belfast
Instead of shouting ‘Order, Order’ during debates the Speaker of the House of Commons will call out
‘No Surrender’
A new look for PM May – an orange scarf or a sash?
Rumours abound of BoJo being enrolled in a baton twirling course and needing to be ready for the 12th. May was preferred but age ruled her out.So she will be making music instead!
Scoop!
Here are the details of PM May’s summer walking holiday 2017 –
No more hiking in Switzerland or the Welsh mountains for the DUP’s newest colleague.
She’s got to walk in about 4,000 parades in Ulster – including Our Glorious 12th July!
What’s the Glorious 12th July all about?
Celebrating winning a battle over the Catholics in 1690 with 4,000 -odd marches a year!.
Tourists say the atmosphere is “intimidatory”
“louts roam around drunk”.
“Sectarian remarks, foul language and behaviour abound “

NB: since the marching season starts soon, and none of them want to miss the 12th, the Government are to seek a pause in the Brexit negotiations.
Has anyone told M.Barnier?
What about PM Theresa May’s home?
Don’t worry. Downing St’s getting a makeover. Just to make it more DUP-like!
This is what it will look like when the work’s finished!
It will make Theresa’s new best friends feel at home and let her know who’s boss now.
NB other British citizens and Johnny Foreigners like Ministers and Heads of State will probably be alienated.
Doesn’t matter.
Theresa’s holding on to her keys! Thanks to her new best friends!
Every British person should be asked
Are Conservatives in the DUP pocket what the people of Great Britain want in Westminster?

Try not to be so cynical. Maybe the Tories will have a civilising effect on the Lambeg beaters. 😉
