EU WHAT? Major Brussels row explodes after claims Britain is planning to break Brexit promises: thesun.co.uk/news/politics/…

EU threatens to pull stumps over backsliding claims... but No10 hit back saying totally wedded to Withdrawal Agreement. Official: "The government is completely committed, as it always has been, to implementing the Northern Ireland Protocol in good faith.” thesun.co.uk/news/politics/…

Official: “If we don't take these steps we face the prospect of legal confusion at the end of the year and potentially extremely damaging defaults, including tariffs on goods moving from GB to Northern Ireland."

"We are making minor clarifications in extremely specific areas to ensure that, as we implement the protocol, we are doing so in a way that allows ministers to always uphold and protect the Good Friday peace agreement.”

PMOS: "We are taking limited and reasonable steps to clarify specific elements of the Northern Ireland Protocol in domestic law to remove any ambiguity and to ensure the government is always able to deliver on its commitments to the people of Northern Ireland."
