DUP calls on May to dump 'poison' Brexit backstop

DUP renews call for change

The days are counting down until Theresa May's Brexit deal faces the House of Commons. The DUP continues to criticize the deal, saying that the backstop is 'poison'.

"It is the duty of the UK government to stand firm," said deputy leader Nigel Dodds. He called it a bad deal.

"The coming days will show if this government is made of the right stuff," he said.
