The strength of TUV's vote in local government elections will be a "barometer of real opposition" to the Northern Ireland Protocol, party leader Jim Allister has said.
Launching their manifesto, Mr Allister said voting TUV would be "injecting necessary strength into others" as he questioned whether the DUP will revive Stormont after the election.
He said restoring power-sharing would be an acceptance of the protocol, which he argued is causing the Union to be "dismantled before our very eyes".
