A Professor of Politics at the region’s largest university says UK MP’s will vote in favour of the Windsor Framework, but that it’s still too soon to call whether the DUP will support it.

The Windsor Framework sees London gain the power to govern VAT and excise rules in Northern Ireland while introducing green and red lanes for goods entering the North.
Professor of Comparative Politics at the University of Limerick, Neil Robinson, predicts Rishi Sunak will hold a vote quickly but warns that if the Stormon break isn’t addressed that it will deligitamise the deal.
