DUP Calls May's Belfast Visit `Waste of Time,' Says Brexit Deal Won't Pass

The Democratic Unionist Party (DUP) opposes the Brexit deal due to the backstop, which they believe creates a divide between Northern Ireland and the rest of the UK. They express concerns about the legal implications of a unilateral declaration and emphasize the need for a legally binding agreement. The DUP urges the Prime Minister to find a better deal that can gain parliamentary support, rejecting the notion of a binary choice between the current deal and no deal. They dismiss claims of bluffing for financial gain and stress the importance of Northern Ireland's future. The DUP calls for a new approach before the parliamentary vote.
