Northern Ireland is facing a possible early Assembly election after DUP First Minister Paul Givan quit yesterday.
The move by the Lagan Valley MLA is part of the DUP’s escalating protest strategy against Brexit’s Northern Ireland Protocol.
Mr Givan said the protocol, which has created trade barriers between Northern Ireland and the rest of the UK, had undermined a cornerstone of powersharing in the region - governance with the consent of both nationalists and unionists.
