The sectarian, frightened #DUP are putting in a Petition of Concern, because they cannot cope with the idea of anyone getting information from a real world outside their bubble of Britishness based in London; though they have no problem at all with sending their own representative to Israel or to the USA.

No wonder the six counties of Northern Ireland are an expensive backwater. #NIPol https://mastodon.scot/@Fife4Europe/115673903493161344

Classic Dog in a Manger behaviour. #NIPol
