Govt: Collective Unionist vote is still strong in N. Ireland

Education Secretary Nadhim Zahawi cautions against discussions of a unification referendum in N.Ireland off the back of a Sinn Fein Stormont majority, saying the "collective" Unionist vote has "held up" despite the DUP doing "less well".

He blames the Northern Ireland Protocol for causing friction in the state and more work needs to be done.
