Northern Ireland Protocol: PM says he is 'giving everything' to reach agreement

Rishi Sunak says he is "giving everything" this weekend to secure a new Brexit deal for Northern Ireland, and he wants "to get the job done".Irish Prime Minister Leo Varadkar said the deal over trade between Great Britain and Northern Ireland was "inching towards a conclusion".The taoiseach said an agreement could come within days but this was "by no means guaranteed" as negotiators still had a gap to close.

It means that goods arriving from England, Scotland and Wales are checked when they arrive at Northern Irish ports. He said he wanted to show that Brexit "works for every part of the United Kingdom", continuing: "There's unfinished business on Brexit and I want to get the job done." The planned meeting between the King and Ursula von der Leyen, originally reported by Sky News, was not part of the negotiations between the UK and the EU and multiple sources said her visit was cancelled due to operational reasons.

Earlier, a source from the DUP told the BBC they had no meetings scheduled over the weekend over the protocol. Eurosceptic Tory MP Sir John Redwood said: "The UK needs to hold out over the EU imposing laws on Northern Ireland. The EU needs to get the Unionists on side."The Northern Ireland Protocol is a trading arrangement, negotiated during Brexit talks. It allows goods to be transported across the Irish land border without the need for checks.
