The government's Northern Ireland Secretary has said "as a government we stand four-square behind our commitments under the Belfast agreement".
James Brokenshire told Martha Kearney that the focus was on "getting a devolved government back into place" and that there was a "clear process".
When asked if he could remain an 'honest broker' if the DUP agreed to support a Conservative minority government, he reiterated the importance of "holding fast to the Belfast agreement" and "to those principles as a government of working for all communities in Northern Ireland."

The local Labour wing said that the other parties will "rightly perceive the odds as being heavily loaded in the DUP's favour" in the talks, and also said the benefits to Northern Ireland "pale into insignificant comparison to the far greater benefits that a Labour government would bring".
