I always feel it’s a weird contradiction in beliefs there: “we want the UK government to have direct rule over Northern Ireland but we also don’t want them to make decisions we, a local party, don’t approve of”.
Although many Protestants here think the DUP is outdated and backward, they still vote for them because they fear that if the vote is split with other unionist parties, Sinn Fein will win everything. It’s not really about beliefs, but rather about choosing the lesser of two evils.
