This is such bad faith: EU was, rightly concerned that Brexit would create a border between EU country Ireland & non-EU country N.Ireland.
To ‘avoid’ this problem EU ‘and’ UK agreed N Ireland would follow EU customs & some product rules- so no checks on the ‘Island of Ireland’

The idea that UK can now just pick and chose when it respects the Protocol on Ireland (hello? Our friend Ireland? This isn’t just about UK v EU) and Northern Ireland is deeply shameful and -because let’s not forget why we signed it- dangerous for peace in our already fragile UK
Only the #NorthernIreland Assembly can choose - every 4 years - whether to continue with the system agreed to protect the #GoodFridayAgreement : if I were Northern Irish I’d be furious that @BorisJohnson is now trying to take that power for Westminster.
MPs, please vote No.
