Northern Ireland’s DUP to vote against new Brexit deal with EU

Al Jazeera  

In a blow to Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, Unionist leader says ‘imposition of EU law’ on Northern Ireland has not been resolved. Northern Ireland’s Democratic Unionist Party says it will vote against a crucial part of the government’s new deal with the European Union on post-Brexit trade rules for the United Kingdom. Parliament on Wednesday will debate and vote on the so-called “Stormont brake”, a mechanism in the agreement struck last month that seeks to resolve tensions caused by the 2020 post-Brexit arrangements governing Northern Ireland. The Stormont brake would enable the UK to stop new EU laws from applying to goods in Northern Ireland if so requested by a third of the lawmakers in the province’s devolved legislature.
