Rishi Sunak won’t do Brexit deal without DUP approval, claim Tory hardliners

The Independent  

Hardline Brexiteers in the Tory party are confident that Rishi Sunak won’t agree to post-Brexit deal with the EU until it wins support from the Democratic Unionist Party. “Let’s not mess around – let’s just get the bloody thing sorted and done.” It now looks unlikely a final deal will be struck with Brussels this week, after No 10 said Mr Sunak would hold further talks with European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen “in the coming days”. Challenged by Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer at PMQs to reveal whether one would be held, the PM said: “Of course, parliament will express its view.” Sir Keir again offered to give Labour’s support to get a Brexit deal through parliament, saying Mr Sunak was still trying to “pluck up the courage to take on the malcontents”. “I welcome what the prime minister had to say … that we are not just talking about tinkering around the edges of the protocol.” open image in gallery DUP leader Sir Jeffrey Donaldson Foreign secretary James Cleverly told meeting of Tory MPs on the 1922 committee on Thursday night that a deal was “around the corner” – but the UK was still pushing hard in negotiations. Despite playing down the idea of quitting on Wednesday, she warned: “I don’t support selling out on Northern Ireland and allowing the EU a foothold in the United Kingdom.” DUP MP colleague Sammy Wilson urged Mr Sunak to push on with the protocol bill and not to rush into any agreement with the EU.
