Brexit: Plans to ditch parts of NI Protocol are economic vandalism – Irish PM – By BBC Newsroom (BBC News) / June 19, 2022
Plans by the UK government to scrap parts of the post-Brexit trade deal it agreed with the EU would be “economic vandalism” on Northern Ireland, the taoiseach (Irish PM) has said.
The government wants to change the Northern Ireland Protocol to make it easier for some goods to flow from Great Britain to Northern Ireland.
It set out the plans in Parliament on Monday.
Micheál Martin said they would damage Northern Ireland’s economy.
Speaking on the BBC’s Sunday Morning programme, the taoiseach added that the legislation was unacceptable and represented “unilateralism of the worst kind”.
