Donaldson may not return to UUP fold

Jeffrey Donaldson, one of the three anti-Agreement Ulster Unionist MPs who defied party leader, David Trimble, says he's having second thoughts about re-entering the party fold.

The three MPs had applied to re-take the whip after the UUP executive rejected the British and Irish Joint Declaration on progress in the North.

Now Jeffrey Donaldson says they're being asked to give Mr Trimble the equivalent of a blank cheque.
