Sir Jeffrey insisted gaps remain, adding his party is set to meet the government later this week
Talks between the DUP and the government to create the conditions for the restoration of the Stormont Assembly have not concluded, Sir Jeffrey Donaldson has said.
The poll suggests that while Sinn Fein remain in the lead with 31% of support, the DUP have narrowed the gap to 28%, up two points from a previous poll in August. Powersharing is unable to function in Northern Ireland without the support of the region’s largest unionist and nationalist parties. The LucidTalk poll also found that almost two thirds of unionists feel strongly against Brexit’s Northern Ireland Protocol, believing that the DUP should not return to Stormont until it is scrapped.
