Breaking: I understand the situation has been rectified. A statement is due shortly. The whole thing was a ‘mistake’ and an ´oversight’ A lot of hot heads after a rancorous week. But #Article16 no longer to be an issue - EU sources.

@ShonaMurray_ climbdown and then some needed but how on earth was something like that an oversight. Not as if ppl weren't aware of the sensitivity of Article 16 if they knew what it existed for to use it (esp since NI unionists been pushing it already). Bad comms on that word esp @Mij_Europe

@DerrickBerthel1 @AllieRenison @ShonaMurray_ @Mij_Europe Why wouldn't it be? They reversed it literally within a couple of hours of the story breaking

@RonOBrien17 @AllieRenison @ShonaMurray_ @Mij_Europe Lol

@DerrickBerthel1 @AllieRenison @ShonaMurray_ @Mij_Europe Since when did you speak for everyone if Britain had made the same mistake do you think it would have admitted and corrected it Not a chance.

@LuccketiMandy @AllieRenison @ShonaMurray_ @Mij_Europe I apologise Mandy. Nobody, and I mean nobody (except for Mandy) believes this.

@ricster71 @AllieRenison @ShonaMurray_ @Mij_Europe Bloody hilarious.

@DerrickBerthel1 @AllieRenison @ShonaMurray_ @Mij_Europe Nobody.
