We the undersigned condemn the DUP collapse of the democratic institutions in the north of Ireland.  

We condemn their threat to prevent a new Executive being formed until they get their way on the North of Ireland Protocol.

We are appalled that Stormont has left;

·        44,000 people on the Housing Waiting List,

·        250,000 people on the health waiting lists for longer than a year

·        241,000 people living in poverty

·        Investment west of the Bann on the floor

·        And the cost-of-living spiralling  

1.      We demand that wages be removed from all DUP MLAs until an Executive is reformed.

2.      We demand that that wages are withheld from all MLAs after an election until an Executive is formed.

3.      We demand that reforms are made to Stormont to prevent any one party pulling down the Executive again.  

The majority of the people of the north voted to remain within the EU. Polls clearly indicate that majority of people of the north support the North of Ireland Protocol or can live with it. The DUP’s mandate is not more equal than others. The DUP cannot be allowed to hold the north of Ireland to ransom.
