Starmer says Boris Johnson thinks he’s ‘on Love Island’

Downing Street has defended the government’s plan to roll back parts of the Northern Ireland Protocol after the EU confirmed it was taking legal action against the UK’s proposed changes to post-Brexit trade deals .

Boris Johnson’s official spokesman said the government was “disappointed” with the EU’s decision to take the case to court.

“We will carefully review these documents and respond formally in due course, but we are disappointed that the EU has taken this legal action today,” the spokesperson said.

“The approach proposed by the EU, which does not differ from what it has said previously, would increase the burdens on businesses and citizens and set us back from where we are today.

“The violations are related to the implementation of the protocol in our recently released bill. It is difficult to see how removing grace periods and adding additional checks and balances would improve the situation.

Labor has rejected claims they will seek to bring Britain back into the EU’s single market and customs union after a shadow leader expressed hope it could return.

A party spokesman said Anna McMorrin, a shadow justice minister, was questioned by Sir Keir Starmer after it was reported she had suggested a Labor government might be able to renegotiate the UK’s agreement with Brussels.

However, she retained her trial role after issuing a statement making it clear that she supported the official party line that the UK had left this EU and that the Labor Party was committed to making the EU work. existing agreement.

The Sun obtained footage of Ms McMorrin answering questions from supporters last week in which she said: ‘We have to renegotiate the deal, definitely.

She added: “Hopefully we will eventually get back into the single market and customs union, and who knows then.”

In her statement, Ms McMorrin said: “Labour’s policy on Brexit is clear. We left the EU, Labor voted for the deal. It is now up to all of us to make it work.”

The spokesman said: ‘That is the position of the Labor Party.

In the Commons, Boris Johnson taunted her over her remarks when she challenged him during Prime Minister’s Questions over his new cost-of-living czar’s comments saying he ‘has to go’.

The Prime Minister replied: “I read the other day that she wants to go back to the single market and to the customs union.

“If this is the real policy of Labour, coming back to the EU, why doesn’t the Leader of the Opposition admit it?”

Braverman – Government ‘would prefer’ to negotiate with EU

The attorney general said the government would ‘prefer’ to negotiate with the EU after the bloc announced it was taking legal action against the UK’s decision to take unilateral action on the Northern Ireland Protocol of Brexit.

Speaking to the BBC, Suella Braverman said: ‘Look, my favorite alternative right now is negotiation and my invitation to our friends in the EU is to come back to the table and engage substantively with our proposals.

“They have failed to do so for over two years now and that is why we unfortunately have no choice but to take these steps.”

In the same interview, Ms Braverman accused the BBC of portraying the UK government as “always malicious” and the EU as the “honest broker”.

Appearing on the company world to one programme, Suella Braverman was asked: ‘This government is continuing to do things that others deem illegal – we can go back to prorogation, to partying, to Northern Ireland protocol, to deporting applicants for ‘asylum – I wonder how comfortable you feel with the reputation this government has built for breaking the law?

“With respect, I think it’s a view of the BBC, if you don’t mind, that the UK government is somehow still malicious and that the EU is still acting as an honest broker and as nice,” she replied.

“It was the Supreme Court that ruled on the prorogation,” said presenter Sarah Montague.

Germany’s ambassador to the UK says EU confidence in Britain has been shaken

Miguel Berger told the BBC world to one program: “I think the most important issue is really to have a relationship of trust in everything we do together. That’s also why this project on Northern Ireland is so disappointing.

“We have this excellent cooperation on Ukraine where we have worked together, in NATO, in the G7, bilaterally, and in such a circumstance having a dispute between the UK and the European Union is totally unnecessary.

“And I think the main issue is really how do you restore trust?”

Pressed on whether the UK is no longer trustworthy, Mr Berger said: ‘I wouldn’t go that far to say that, but it obviously had a negative effect.

No 10 ‘disappointed’ by EU legal action

The government is “disappointed” by the EU’s decision to launch new legal action against the UK over the implementation of the Northern Ireland Protocol, Downing Street has said.

The Prime Minister’s official spokesman said the latest proposals from Brussels to solve the problem would lead to more checks and controls, which would make the situation worse.

“We will carefully review these documents and respond formally in due course, but we are disappointed that the EU has taken this legal action today,” the spokesperson said.

“The approach proposed by the EU, which does not differ from what they have said previously, would increase the burdens on businesses and citizens and set us back from where we are today.
