David Trimble showed leadership at a time when Nothern Ireland so badly needed it. All politicians from all traditions should be inspired by his courage.
My thoughts tonight are with his family, his wife Daphne, his UUP colleagues & unionist community. https://www.rte.ie/news/ireland/2022/0725/1312189-david-trimble/

@ALLYPIP2 You make a fair point on goods staying in UK.
Last year EU recognised that goods from GB, staying in NI, should be treated very differently and require far fewer checks.
I advocated for that & believe it can be the basis for an agreed compromise. But we need a partner in UK.

The lack of any serious engagement by UK Govt with #EU to resolve NI Protocol issues has forced @EU_Commission to take further legal action.

@NIOgov @HouseofCommons @FCDOGovUK Don’t misled people.
U.K. Gov unilaterally using domestic legislation to dismantle an Int. treaty is not only a breach of int. law & good faith, but will cause huge problems for NI.
The vast majority of people in NI correctly want Protocol issues solved by EU/U.K. negotiation.
