Speaking to BBC NI's Sunday Politics programme outside Drumcree Church on Saturday, Lockhart said her constituents are angry.

"They're angry at the chief constable for allowing lawlessness to win, for allowing the mob to dictate," she said.

"They're angry at the secretary of state for his intervention, but the most palpable anger is at Michelle O'Neill, this self-proclaimed 'first minister for all' for breaking the law flagrantly on the Garvaghy Road, and thumbing her nose at unionism and at the Orange Order and at this community."

Police had repeatedly warned those taking part in the unnotified protest that they could be liable for arrest.

O'Neill has defended her involvement, saying she was standing with the local community in opposition to an Orange Order parade through the area.

She previously dismissed a call from the DUP to resign over her role in protests telling the assembly she was "proud" to stand with the residents and "will continue to stand with them".

The DUP (Democratic Unionist Party) share power with Sinn Féin in the Northern Ireland Executive, but Lockhart says it can no longer be business as usual.

"You can not continue to engage with someone who is so blatant in her disregard and disdain for a large section of this community," she said.

"Very clearly it cannot be business as usual at Stormont."

Lockhart says her party must take action against O'Neill.

"People want to see consequences, and we have said very clearly, profound consequence, and therefore we should use whatever is in our armoury to ensure that Michelle O'Neill, the person who really is supposed to be that first minister for all, as she claims, is dealt with in the appropriate way," she added.

The DUP could remove O'Neill from the first minister's position if the deputy first minister quits.

That role is held by Emma Little-Pengelly, but that seems unlikely.

Over the weekend the DUP leader Gavin Robinson and Little-Pengelly said they would not collapse the power-sharing institutions.

But Lockhart wants that option to be considered.

"There is lots of options on the table with regards to Michelle O'Neill and her continued position, and we have it within our gift to ensure that she is actually removed from that position," she said.

"So it is time for the anger to be seen in the politics and for profound consequences to follow.

"We've been told that all options are still on the table. So that is a very clear option.

"What I am saying is, within the community, within the unionist community, within the Orange community, and within grassroots loyalism there's a real anger towards a first minister, who claims she is the first minister for all, for thumbing her nose, laughing on the Garvaghy Road last night at this community, who have stood lawfully."

On Saturday, a High Court judge said a legal appeal by Orangemen following the secretary of state's decision was not an emergency case and adjourned the hearing until Monday.

Lockhart said the 35 Orangemen from Portadown District Lodge had "stood lawfully" for the last two weeks on Drumcree hill.

"I've been on this hill from I was 10 years of age, it means something to me. It means a lot to my constituents here in Upper Bann," she said.

So does the Upper Bann MP still have confidence in her own party?

"I have confidence that I will ensure that my constituents' voices are heard within the party, and I will ensure that I continue to represent the views here in Portadown," she said.
