Brexit deal for NI signed

Rishi Sunak’s Brexit deal for Northern Ireland formally signed off with EU

This comes after a Conservative rebellion against the deal failed, and Sunak won the overwhelming backing of MPs for the deal aimed at fixing problems with the original Northern Ireland protocol.

Obviously, not everyone supported the deal, 22 MPs refused to back the deal. These included the usual suspects, Boris Johnson, Liz Truss and Jacob Rees-Mogg, along with the Democratic Unionist party.

Can’t say that I am disappointed, on the contrary, but since this looks like normal reasonable politics, it is a bit unexpected, and not something we are used to hearing about Brexit.
