The proBritish DUP saw support undermined in part due to its role in postBrexit talks between London and Brussels that resulted in trade barriers between Northern Ireland and the rest of the United Kingdom.
It‘s “clear that stability is being put at risk, imperiled if you like, by the problems with Northern Ireland protocol,” Raab told Sky News’ Sophy Ridge on Sunday.
“We are focused on those two elements, bringing the parties together, stability, but also unlocking the problems with the Northern Ireland protocol,” he added.
