Those who vote against the #WindsorFramework today are playing with fire.
What can they achieve other than to inflame hostilities?
I note that Boris Johnson has decided to pin his colours to the #DUP.
As if he hadn't already done enough damage in his disgraceful political career.

Nobody seems too concerned about the Cherbourg to Rosslare route.
I can't imagine it's a hard border. Just jump off in the Republic, head for Belfast and claim asylum - seems legal to me.
That'll have the #DUP in full red face mode

RT @JimFergusonUK: DUP suggests parts of Brexit deal do not tally with Rishi Sunakโs promises. So it seems that #Sunak was either ignorant of what was In the agreement or he misled Parliament. The #DUP are absolutely correct in highlighting. EU law cannot be on UK Territory. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/politics/2023/03/01/dup-suggests-parts-brexit-deal-do-not-tally-rishi-sunaks-promises/

excellent article that answers the question, why was it relatively easy for #Sunak given the idiots in government to get this agreed?

Pretty much everything that has now been agreed was there to be negotiated two years ago: flexibility on VAT.. state aid rules, enhanced role for the assembly in Belfast. All that was ever required was normal diplomacy at the high level and nerds lower down to do the nuts-and-bolts stuff

Of course, we used to have an excellent solution to Northern Ireland: no barriers or checks at all, & a Good Friday agreement that had been duly negotiated. But the DUP hate sharing power, hate border-free relations with Ireland, don't they?
The #DUP are the barrier.
And #Brexit.

can we arrange for that poor beast to be brought back to its native waters of the black sea, were its archaic urges can be put to constructive use?

Let's be honest, if the #DUP think the #NorthernIreland protocol agreement is acceptable, we're paying them off again aren't we?
@Inge @Riotgrandma72 agree, notice though they havn't slammed the #DUP for wrecking Northern Ireland and being totally anti democratic
A question for northern #Irish folk. Is the stance of the #DUP in blocking the formation of a government helping the republican cause and being seen as hindering #NorthernIreland, or is support strong for their position?
This thread says it clearly๐
Brexit created borders and delays.
Thatโs why thereโs a border in the Irish Sea
The #DUP pretending there shouldnโt be one is crazy.
Itโs there or on the RoI border, which breaks the Good Friday agreement.
Itโs not Europes fault itโs Brexitโs fault

Brexit creates a border.
They lied that it wouldnโt.
They donโt deserve to get votes in the forthcoming NI elections

This is what #DUP had strategically banked on for Ireland: Theyโd hoped #BREXIT wouldโve reinforced partition & hardened the border in Ireland. SF stopped thatโ

@johnredwood The spin has always been entirely from the Brexit side. They spun lies before and they are spinning lies now. Until they face the truth and own it, there will be no way the government can address their problem with the NIP (which is actually just the #DUP).
