Arlene Foster tells Prime Minister to ‘stop wasting time’ on Brexit deal

Arlene Taggart:

Arlene Foster has wasted 22 months on full pay and can’t get Stormont sorted. She has a brass neck.

Johnny Story:

Arlene Taggart, what about Sinn Fein? They walked away.

Shirley Anderson:

Johnny Story, maybe if Arlene had stepped aside at the start until the RHI Inquiry had taken place, Sinn Fein wouldn’t have walked and we all wouldn’t be in this godawful mess. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t support either party. They’re as bad as each other.

Declan Heaney:

The fact she should have stepped aside while the RHI Inquiry took place seems to have been lost in the fog. Taking two years’ pay and refusing to go to work? Brass neck is putting it politely.

Trevor Lyle-Toal :

Someone is wanting their cake and eating it at same time.

Paul Anthony McKee:

She’s wasted the time of the electorate for years. Pot, kettle, black.

Johnny Story:

Paul Anthony McKee, “she” wasted time? What about “they all” wasted time?

Seamus O’Murchu:

What’s her suggestion?

Paul Casey:

Stand firm. The good people of Northern Ireland are with you and the DUP.

Phil McManus:

Paul Casey, so it’s the “good” people who are with her and her stance and, therefore, the “bad” people who are against her?

Keith Dunwoodie:

The “good” people are not at all with her. Figures are out there to prove it.

Paul McKeown:

She rightly rejects Theresa May’s nonsense, because it would leave the UK without a say in laws which it would be bound to obey, but then promotes a Norway-style deal, which would do the same.

Zeone Deane:

The PM has stated she has the best deal from the EU. Hard choices ahead. The Bank of England categorically stated the catastrophic implications of a no-deal Brexit: a 9% fall in GDP over the next 15 years.

Jayne Harvey:

But what would banks, or farmers, or anyone in the business world, for that matter, know about it?
