Britain will put itself During the collision Brussels today announced a series of requirements that will completely reform the post-Brexit trade arrangements between the UK and Northern Ireland.

The Minister of the Cabinet Office, Lord David Frost, will outline what officials call “wholesale changes” aimed at canceling most of the inspections of the Irish Sea trade borders that took effect in January.

If the EU does not make concessions, the UK may suspend the Northern Ireland Agreement, and Frost warned that the UK has the right to activate the 16th priority clause in the agreement.

Britain’s new position may anger Brussels. According to the terms of the Northern Ireland Agreement agreed to by Johnson in 2019, in order to prevent Ireland from restoring its hard border, all goods shipped from the UK to the region must comply with EU customs and agricultural regulations.
