The Ulster Unionist Party has announced it will not support a no-confidence motion against Education Minister Paul Givan, who has faced criticism following his recent trip to Israel. While Sinn Fein, the Social Democratic and Labour Party, and People Before Profit are backing the motion, the Ulster Unionist Party emphasized the need for unity and practical solutions rather than division. Protests have taken place in Belfast calling for Mr Givan's resignation, and an online petition has gathered over 12,000 signatures. Despite the controversy and calls for his removal, Democratic Unionist Party leader Gavin Robinson has reaffirmed his support for Mr Givan, who says he will continue to serve his constituents with dedication.
