If the EU did use a technicality in the WA to stop food going from GB to NI, can someone tell me how the UK reaction to stop that doesn't fall perfectly into paragraph 1 of the Safeguards included in the Withdrawal Agreement?

Then it would have to be done but not on a presumption. They would then be breaking the agreement

1/7 I would like to make a few comments and state a few facts, in my capacity as the PM's negotiator in the current and last autumn's talks.

Protocol on IE/NI is not a threat to the integrity of the UK. We agreed this delicate compromise with @BorisJohnson & his gov in order to protect peace & stability on island of Ireland. We could not have been clearer about the consequences of #Brexit [1/2]

2/7 On the Protocol, we indeed negotiated a careful balance in order to preserve peace and the Belfast (Good Friday) Agreement. It is precisely to ensure this balance can be preserved in all circumstances that the Govt needs powers in reserve to avoid it being disrupted.

3/7 On 3rd country listings: the EU knows perfectly well all the details of our food standards rules because we are operating EU rules. The situation on 1.1.21 is accordingly perfectly clear. We have discussed this frequently with the EU including last week.

4/7 Any changes in future would be notified to the WTO and EU in the usual way with plenty of lead time. The EU lists dozens of countries globally on precisely this basis, without any sort of commitment about the future.

5/7 Yet it has been made clear to us in the current talks that there is no guarantee of listing us. I am afraid it has also been said to us explicitly in these talks that if we are not listed we will not be able to move food to Northern Ireland.

6/7 The EU's position is that listing is needed for Great Britain only, not Northern Ireland. So if GB were not listed, it would be automatically illegal for NI to import food products from GB.

7/7 I hope the EU will yet think better of this. It obviously makes it no easier to negotiate a good free trade agreement and the solid future relationship which we all want.

The Tory MP says there is "no doubt" the "unpalatable" implications of the Withdrawal Agreement were known when the PM signed it.

 

Hooray! At last they have wheeled out loser Ed Millibland!!
He is still as crap as before.
Obviously things must be going wrong for Sir Bellend or is silence due to the fact that he will be made to look like a remainer...sorry he's now a Leaver...i think? Amazes me how all these old reamainers are now life long Brexitiers?
