As ever it falls to unionists in Northern Ireland to protect that which they should take for granted and which is Westminster’s obligation: the integrity of our country.
Notably it is @duponline having to hold the line.

@CatharineHoey @chhcalling @csbuckler Neither can I see how altering the NI Act of 1998 assures that which had been (but is no longer) assured by the Acts of Union.
The cross community consent provisions in the 1998 Act were set aside to make way for the Protocol.
Third rate stuff from the SoS of NI.

No doubt @BorisJohnson is right to turn his nose up at @RishiSunak’s lousy Windsor Framework. But it is rich to put it mildly. He had three years to fix his own lousy deal and never did.

@latikambourke @CeeMacBee That last paragraph says it all. The Protocol was never necessary. We have it because Johnson willingly put it in place.

The Windsor Framework is the progeny of the Protocol.
It puts masking tape over trade difficulties but leaves the EU firmly in charge of Northern Ireland.
Like its parent, it must be rejected.

This is very worthwhile reading. From @MichaelWCurzon
The Windsor Framework nowhere near addresses problems created by the Protocol

The EU has confirmed the Windsor Framework to be completely in accordance with Article 164 of the Withdrawal Agreement.
This PROHIBITS any fundamental changes to the Protocol.
If you opposed the Protocol, you must oppose @RishiSunak “new” deal.
