Donaldson set to stick with UUP
Anti-agreement Ulster Unionist MP Jeffrey Donaldson is expected to back down on his threat to quit the party following his recent defeat at the hands of party leader David Trimble.
According to reports this morning, Mr Donaldson and two of his anti-agreement colleagues, David Burnside and Martyn Smyth, will resign the UUP whip at Westminster, but will remain on as members of the party.
