Comments by "Greg Greg" (@SlowhandGreg) on "'There isn't going to be a trade war' over Northern Ireland protocol says Nigel Farage" video.

  1. Quote from an article in the FT Northern Ireland success due to EU Jonathan Portes, professor of economics at King’s College London, said that “Northern Ireland has done better” because the Protocol allows it to be part of the EU single market. Fresh data comes after last month it emerged Northern Ireland was the only region in the UK with increasing imports for the first half of 2021, compared to the same period last year. The statistics show Northern Ireland performed better than any other part of the UK, with Britain’s overall economic recovery falling 2.1 per cent over the same period.

NI voted to remain within the EU by a large margin (55%) an even larger margin want the Protocol enacted through negotiation with the EU (59%) the UK government need to crater the deal before it becomes too obvious how well NI is doing with unfettered access to the single market compared to the UK.
