Theresa May Joins Forces With The DUP After A Hung Parliament

The Conservatives have joined up with the DUP in Ulster after they failed to win an overall majority in the 2017 elections.
The Tories flopped a little while the Marxist Labour Party rallied on with promise after promise.
Obviously, the Labour Party was saying things what the public wanted to hear.
Of course, they would never be able to deliver much, we simply couldn't afford it.
At least when the Conservative Party campaigned, they told the truth.

Unfortunately, telling it as it is didn't pay dividends for Theresa May.
However, all is not lost for the Tories.
They needed 8 more seats and have joined up with the DUP who have 10 seats.
So, how will this marriage work?
The Tories will have to please the DUP on some things to get their full support.
So, Northern Ireland, which gets more money from central government to start with than the rest of the UK will get more.

None of us want another election so lets hope this marriage succeeds.
We have seen that the Scottish people got sick of Jimmy Krankie's harp on about another referendum.
We really want stability.
Some might argue that Jeremy Corbyn's false promises has caused the instability.
However, Theresa May played the worst election campaign I have ever witnessed.

The thing is, no matter what political party you support, we need Brexit sorted now.
However, this instability has put a spanner in the works.

Let's hope that Theresa May can have a workable option with the DUP and get us through the Brexit talks.

I am not sure how this will pan out but I don't think the Shin Fain will be happy.
But who gives a toss about what they say, they shouldn't really be in the UK.

It took a while but they seem to have an understanding now.

It cost a lot of money though.
