51% : Earlier this week, Secretary of State Chris Heaton-Harris indicated that he believes the talks are in the "final phase", while DUP leader Sir Jeffrey Donaldson said they were "in the process of refining legislation" that protects Northern Ireland's ability to trade within the UK.
47% : "It's not going to be any good to anyone if (it) then just collapses six months later, so (it's) important that there's a programme for government, important that there's a good financial package, because the new Northern Ireland executive will have some very difficult decisions to make, but we should try and make it easier for them in my view, and that's going to be an important part I think in any package."
