Description

As anticipation continues to increase at the prospect of an agreement being signed between the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland at a forthcoming summit, Peter Robinson speaks to Good Evening Ulster on proposals for a Unionist counter-summit. He envisions the two main Unionist parties - of which the DUP was then the smaller - coming together to study the details being issued on any agreement and to make public their response.

The two rival Unionist parties would go on to provide a fairly unified front in their protest against the eventual agreement.
