There are currently 63 EU infringement proceedings active against France for breaches of, among others, environmental, money laundering and waste regulations

This is the exact same type of legal action now launched against UK for the #InternalMarketBill

What did @duponline leader @J_Donaldson_MP get in his deal with @RishiSunak?
He says substantial change to Irish Sea border, critics say cosmetic change.
What more did he achieve than was already on offer in the Windsor Framework by boycotting Stormont?
1/
Downing Street says the new deal contains “significant” changes to WF but doesn’t alter “fundamentals”.
EC expects UK to uphold WF & will scrutinise the new agreement to return to Stormont “carefully”.
Here's my attempt to see thru smoke & mirrors.
2/
Some things stay the same. NI still follow EU rules & be subject to ECJ in some circs. The red lane for British goods travelling onto EU territory remains. There will be border posts.

.@nickgutteridge & I can reveal a bit more detail on Government's offer to DUP here. Basically - unionists will be able to force an investigation into the Brexit border with a majority vote in Stormont. 1/
telegraph.co.uk/politics/2024/…
That will sound familiar. The Government has already promised such a report if the consent vote on Protocol/Windsor Framework didn't get cross community support... (the consent vote must be held by end of this year) 2/
But that offer has now been fleshed out and sharpened up as part of package aimed at convincing DUP to get back to Stormont. 3.

Interesting evidence by Ulster Unionist leader @BeattieDoug to Lords committee on Northern Ireland Protocol.
He says he have visited v many different firms in NI.

“I have gone to many who are absolutely booming because of the protocol. They're absolutely booming.”
1/
He cites pharma company Almac in UpperBann, an agricultural company and a pet food store which does 60% of trade with Ireland. All are “booming because of the protocol”

BUT...
2/
"So there are people who are benefiting because of the protocol but there are others who are absolutely on their knees. They're on their knees, as their main market is between Northern Ireland and Great Britain.
Their goods and services come from GB, our largest market"

.@JamesCleverly is asked what progress has been made in protocol talks at European Scrutiny Committee.

He admits talks are at an “impasse”, which he blames on @MarosSefcovic mandate (while praising Sefco as wanting a deal).
1/
Pressed on progress, Cleverly says got a good resolution on medicines. Says there a lot of live issues which can only be solved once final issues over integrity of Single Market are ironed out.

2.
Cleverly:
“One of the challenges is that we are now regarding this more about how we protect the Good Friday Agreement rather than a kind of a technical trade problem. And I think that's that's where the gap is between our position.”
