Reportedly, the northern Ireland assembly is mutually inter-dependent, one part can not successfully function without the other, therefore first minister Paul Givan’s resignation on 3 February removed Sinn Fein’s deputy first minister, who urged the assembly to salvage what they can from the chaos caused by the dup.
Reportedly, the northern Ireland assembly met on Monday for the first time since last weeks events. According to the report, the speaker said he will be focused on the passing of as much legislation as possible until the dissolution of the assembly, prior to May’s elections.
Reportedly, all parties except for the traditional unionist’s voice criticised the dup’s actions. According to the report, the move has been widely criticised by other parties as a gross betrayal of the people of northern Ireland.
