It will be interesting to hear how goods are currently being moved from Ireland to Ulster.
I'm guessing that as the legal & trading frameworks on either side of the Irish border are the same because we are currently both EU members there are no checkpoints or few checkpoints.
We need to recreate the same equal legal & trading frameworks but with Ireland answerable to EU courts & Ulster answerable to UK courts.
If everything else is equal both courts should arrive at the same verdict/conclusion with any issue raised.

The UK Parliament won't say what they would agree to, and the EU won't budge. Anything allegedly of concern to the EU comes after the end of the transitional phase of the WA, which the WA is not allowed to deal with.
Now with the Benn act, the UK Parliament and Ireland are never in a million years going to agree to anything. They'll keep moving the goalposts. They've been given a loaded gun and have itchy trigger fingers. |
So are you saying because of the WA, Boris is intending to leave the EU only to re-apply to the EU for a trade deal after we have left, or is he just intending to leave and not bother with a deal.
Not sure how well that will go down especially if Boris withholds the leaving money.
