Foyle DUP Westminster candidate Gary Middleton says upcoming election chance to 'vote for the Union'

Foyle DUP Westminster Candidate Gary Middleton has said that the upcoming election on 8th June will be an opportunity to vote for the Union between Northern Ireland and Great Britain.

The Foyle MLA said: "Prior to the most recent Assembly election, Arlene Foster warned of the re-emergence of Gerry Adams as Sinn Fein’s main negotiator and spokesperson, their radical republican agenda and the ongoing demands for a divisive border poll. As seen over recent weeks, this has proven to be true.

"At this election, we have an opportunity to seek a mandate for the Union that really matters, the Union with Great Britain.

"Unionist co-operation is something which I very much believe in, that is why I acknowledge and welcome the decision by the Ulster Unionist Party not to field a candidate in Foyle.

"It is vital that we make sure that Northern Ireland gets the best deal from our exit from the EU. This will be best achieved through a strong and experienced DUP at Westminster.

"Now more than ever, unionism needs to speak with one voice."
