Sunak holds back Northern Ireland protocol deal amid concerns from DUP and Tory Brexiters
You know what? It's almost like.............noooooo. It can't be done.Maybe she wants to create some sort of economic union. That would be a brilliant idea.
Do you trust her to do it when all she is going to do, is attack the Pork Markets and eventually get ousted by a vegetable.

Lettuce pray that she never holds any office ever again.Do you trust her to do it when all she is going to do, is attack the Pork Markets and eventually get ousted by a vegetable.
Her party affiliation.what makes her think that anything she says is going to be listened too?
It's wild how Brits in the north of Ireland remain so loyal to the crown, when it's made so clear time and time again that Westminster (more specifically the tory party, but pretty much across the board) does not care about the region one bit. Irish reunification will happen in the next 20 years I reckon.
"Easiest deal in history"... right.
3 years after the UK left the EU, and coming up for 7 years since the UK voted to leave, Brexit is even more of a clown show than many of dared to think it would be.
Rishi Sunak (pictured above) is currently renegotiating the Northern Ireland protocol, but he's coming up against the same obstacles as everyone else before him - Theresa May (pictured above) failed to get a deal... Boris Johnson (pictured above) got an awful deal that he and his Brexiteer cronies (pictured above) insist is a really good one - so good, in fact, that the current Prime Minister is trying to change it.
As for the new proposals, apparently Sinn Fein are in favour and Labour have pledged to support it - but of course if that is the case, then it means that the DUP (pictured above) and the Brexiteers will hate it. Sunak could soon solve some of the issues with the NI protocol, but at the expense of a wave of resignations and splitting the Tory party (which would be a terrible shame).
It does apply to any war around the world, and those same tactics have worked very well for Britain all these years, both in Ireland and abroad.I don't think that bombing the crap out of buildings and killing people indiscriminately is a great way to endear others to your cause of reunification.... Mind you, that could apply to any war around the world.
My stepfather always used to say 'put two Irishmen in a room and they'll argue about the colour of the walls'.
Staggering.The PM’s spokesperson said his comments this morning about Northern Ireland benefiting from being in the EU single market did not mean he thought the whole of the UK should be in it
It's been my impression that they know as individuals, no matter how powerful they are in NI they know they'll be nothing in England, so prefer to remain big fish in a small pond - same applies for unification as far as they see it. They've had centuries of lording it over Catholics and don't want to give that up - even in the face of reality. They are rudderless now that they're a minority party. I just hope they don't try for their long-shelved planned massacre of all Catholics as a last ditch attempt."Why are Loyalists so devoted to the idea of Britain and the Crown?"
Instead of putting on more trains to meet demand, Eurostar has run up against new border constraints, now stamping passports in separate queues – a process so time-consuming that Eurostar can no longer board everyone on time, and deliberately departs with empty seats. About 350 out of 900 seats are normally left unsold on the first services between London, Paris and Brussels, chief executive Gwendoline Cazenave admitted in January. From Amsterdam, a maximum of 250 of 900 could now be filled because of the lack of space at the station for border controls. [\quote]
