Brexit: DUP may revisit confidence and supply deal, says Foster

The DUP would have to revisit its confidence and supply deal with the Tories if Theresa May's Brexit deal passes through parliament, Arlene Foster has said.

The DUP leader said her agreement with the Conservatives had been intended to provide the UK with national stability and to deliver on Brexit.

She was speaking on Radio Ulster's Inside Politics programme.

The DUP is holding its annual conference this weekend.

"If this is not going to deliver on Brexit then of course that brings us to the situation of looking again at the confidence and supply deal.

"But we are not there yet," she said.

The DUP leader insisted the government should "ditch the Irish backstop" and recognise that, in practice, nobody will implement a hard border on the island of Ireland.

She argued that the prospect of such a hard border has taken on a "mythical status" in the Brexit negotiations.

Mrs Foster argued that the EU Withdrawal Agreement as it stands will not get the support of parliament.

He has been identified as John Allen Chau, a 27 year old from Alabama.
Contact with the endangered Andaman tribes living in isolation from the world is illegal because of the risks to them from outside disease.
Estimates say the Sentinelese, who are totally cut off from civilisation, number only between 50 and 150
