Northern Irish MP Wilson's response to the morning's talk 4 Dec
- trade rule convergence not deliverable
Lest we forget that the UK govt is dependent on the DUP vote to keep them with a parliamentary majority and they don't seem very happy atm.
Wilson has recently said that his party's deal to support the Conservative government could be jeopardised by the Brexit negotiations and any attempt to "placate Dublin and the EU" could mean a withdrawal of DUP support.
