A second referendum

| Readers 0

Jeffrey Donaldson reveals more of his ideas about how progress might be made beyond the current political impasse. The latest big idea is to have a second referendum once the review process is complete. Such a move would fit in perfectly with the DUP’s idea of pitching the review as a new Agreement.

There is no reason why any agreement which emerges from those negotiations should not go to the people in a referendum. I am all for the people having their say, but I hope that next time we will get it right and that the proposals will have the overwhelming endorsement of the majority of unionists and nationalists.
