The Democratic Unionist Party is really bad news, a gaggle of anitabortionist, pro creationist wack jobs who have a far right social agenda that is going to be nothing but trouble for May. Like all religious nutcases, they will not compromise because god.

The description of their MPs sounded like the who's who at the Values Voter Summit.

The DUP is going to make this coalition very, very unstable. Elections are likely to come sooner rather than later.
