DUP set to turn down PM May's Brexit proposal due to 'insufficient' progress

The Northern Irish party propping up British Prime Minister Theresa May's minority government will on Tuesday vote against her divorce deal to take Britain out of the European Union, a spokesman for the party said.

The Democratic Unionist Party (DUP) had said in a statement that May had not achieved sufficient progress in her Brexit negotiations "at this time" but that it was still possible to reach a deal with further talks.
