LONDON - The Northern Irish party that is crucial to Prime Minister Theresa May’s hopes of getting her twice-defeated Brexit deal through parliament is likely to support it in a third vote next week, the Spectator magazine reported on Saturday. The Democratic Unionist Party , which has 10 lawmakers in parliament, is moving towards backing May’s European Union divorce deal for the first time after receiving a promise that the government would put into law a requirement that there be no divergence between Northern Ireland and Britain, it said.
A cabinet minister involved in the talks with the DUP told the Spectator the chances of the Northern Irish party backing the government’s deal were around 60 percent.
