DUP Vetoes Michelle O'Neill's Attendance at Glasgow Devolution Summit

Northern Ireland First Minister Michelle O'Neill did not attend Prime Minister Andy Burnham's devolution summit in Glasgow on 30 October 2026. The Democratic Unionist Party (DUP) vetoed her attendance over a row about Drumcree, a long-running parade dispute. Officials attended in her place. The summit discussed the "next stage of devolution": moving powers from London to governments closer to home.
