Those asking for more specific materials to help prove Tory lies about EU's supposedly new / extremist / absurd interpretation of Irish border Protocol...
Here is a series of short excerpts from my peer reviewed CMLRev analysis (written Nov 2019-Feb 2020, published June 2020):
1) excerpt pointing out how Johnson's lies about "no border in Irish sea" clash with clear reality of Johnson positively agreeing to extensive checks on movement of goods from GB to NI:
2) excerpt noting clear impact of checks on goods moving from GB to NI as agreed by Johnson; as well as need for checks on goods moving from NI to GB also agreed by Johnson; and explicitly anticipating problems this would inevitably cause for "UK Internal Market"
3) excerpt criticising Johnson's plan to subject NI to a novel and complex "dual customs regime" - based on explicit rule that all GB goods entering NI are presumed to pay EU customs duties, subject to nightmarish system of reimbursements etc
4) excerpt pointing out problems that would arise if UK deliberately breached Protocol & tried to force EU to construct hard border across island of Ireland.
So when Johnson says this is all news to him, he's a liar. Though he'd probably just tell his Brexit Loons I'm a witch.
