Research by Queen’s University finds DUP has ‘no mandate’ to adopt ‘hardline anti-protocol, anti-powersharing position’

But it is the findings on the protocol and powersharing that have the most immediate political relevance as the DUP considers whether to accept the changes made to the protocol in the Windsor Declaration.

The findings are part of the Northern Ireland Assembly Election Study 2022. It relies on an in-depth survey of 2,000 voters across Northern Ireland in the immediate aftermath of the election. Academics John Garry and Brendan O’Leary – who also worked on The Irish Times/series – and Jamie Pow sought to examine the nature of the mandates received by the different parties.

The authors report: “The balance of opinion is very much against scrapping the protocol if it means the end of powersharing.”
