“Our task now is to ensure that Ireland doesn’t become collateral damage in the Tory party civil war or in the divisions that are now emerging between the DUP and Theresa May’s government.
“The DUP do not speak for the majority of people in the north in terms of Brexit and there is an onus on the Irish government and EU27 to recognise that as the negotiations reach a critical point,” she added.
