LONDON — The Democratic Unionist Party’s (DUP) website crashed on Friday morning as Brits tried to figure out who the small Northern Irish party actually are.
The surge in traffic to the DUP’s websites follows reports of a DUP-Conservative deal that could enable to the Tories to form a minority government. The Tories failed to win enough seats in Thursday’s election to form a government but a promise of support from the DUP could allow them to lead the country.
The Northern Irish party has long remained on the fringes of mainstream British politics. They don’t have a presence on the mainland, and rarely get a look in on the national debate, which is dominated by the likes of the Conservatives, Labour, and smaller parties like Green and UKIP.
But following a humiliating result in Thursday’s snap general election that left Theresa May unable to form a majority government alone, the Conservative Prime Minister has been in talks with the party about a deal that would grant her a majority to govern in Parliament.
Overnight, online interest in the DUP surged, as Brits Googled the party to learn more about it.
