Britain's Prime Minister spent half an hour talking to a range of business leaders from Northern Ireland this afternoon about the Northern Ireland Protocol

Britain's Prime Minister spent half an hour talking to a range of business leaders from Northern Ireland this afternoon about the Northern Ireland Protocol.

Stephen Kelly of Manufacturing NI said Mr Sunak did not go into detail on the current status of the negotiations or indicated a timeframe for a possible deal with the EU."He was directly engaged and had an intimate understanding of the issues. This wasn't a case of going through the motions," he said.

"Of course, parliament will express its view," Mr Sunak told parliament in response to a question from the British Labour party's leader Keir Starmer on whether parliament will get a vote on any potential deal. Mr Starmer said:"The Labour Party is proud to be the party of the Good Friday Agreement and peace and prosperity in Northern Ireland. We welcome attempts to make the protocol work more effectively.

Mr Starmer said:"We all agree that the protocol can be improved. But there are trade-offs and we need to face up to them."That was absolute nonsense, and it destroyed trust. So in the interests of restoring that trust, will he confirm that to avoid a hard border on the island of Ireland the deal he is negotiating is going to see Northern Ireland continue to follow some EU law?"

Just half hour ! How can anyone have a reasonable meeting in 30 mins ? What a joke

In Ireland, unionist = imperialist - that’s what Sunak is declaring when he calls himself that

Wise you know the people that create jobs unlike Jeffrey Donaldson who could live with 40k job loses and Ian Paisley who is happy for any crumbs from Tory tables

30 whole minutes, damn.
