Carla Lockhart has left the Democratic Unionist Party amid a dispute over Drumcree, according to the available details.
The MP had called for Michelle O’Neill to be removed from her position as First Minister. Her departure from the DUP follows that disagreement and places the dispute at the centre of her decision to leave the party.
No further details about the circumstances of her resignation, including its timing or the response from the DUP or the First Minister, have been provided. The latest known position is that Lockhart is no longer a member of the DUP.
