Interesting that the DUP are now invoking the Good Friday Agreement as a reason NOT to have a N Ireland only backstop. They were the only political party not to back the GFA and have often said it needs to be changed, not now though! #Newsnight

Where’s @GavinWilliamson to make this seismic announcement? Instead the Ofqual Chair, Roger Taylor is stumbling through an announcement that should be made by the Government #examshambles

So your son needed to go to the loo on a 30 mile drive back from Barnard Castle but was able to go 260 miles from London to Durham without a pee stop?

U.K media gives the DUP’s opposition to a N Ireland only backstop a lot of air time. It’s worth remembering they don’t speak for the majority of people in NI who would prefer to be in the EU than U.K.

Matt Hancock now saying he chooses ‘peace in N Ireland’ and that’s why he’s prepared to break international law on #R4Today What? Is he really saying the Withdrawal Agreement threatens the GFA but this doesn’t?

DUP now saying the deal is a devolved issue which requires NI consent. Brexit was not a devolved issue, if it was it would not have had NI consent.

(1/2) The GFA requires cross community consent for all controversial issues passing through the Assembly. UK & EU negotiators, who have ad nauseam pontificated about the need to respect the Agreement, have no business interfering in the processes for consent as currently set out.

Quite the Punch circa 1870s vibe here (and of course Biden is teetotal). I wonder if a U.S. President, say, Belgium and looked up some distant relatives would the English care so much?
