The DUP leader Arlene Foster has backed Peter Robinson's border poll comments and strongly denied they were an attack on her leadership. Mr Robinson had accused unionists who caution against talking about a border poll of engaging in "claptrap" and "crass folly". But his former colleague Sammy Wilson said "his current analysis of what unionists should be doing is just plain wrong." What is going on with the party? Stephen spoke to the Newsletter's political editor Sam McBride, DUP MLA Jim Wells and commentator Tom Kelly.
