Brolly was speaking following Edwin Poots' resignation as leader of the DUP
, Brolly - who has been critical of the party in the past - said:"I've been making this point for a long time - the DUP is a cult.
"They're trapped in this fantasy of 'Never, never, never' and 'Ulster is British' and all of that... and it's just fallen apart". It comes as the British government agreed that it will introduce an Irish language act in Northern Ireland in October if the Stormont Assembly does not do so by September.
