Brexit: No deal on NI Protocol this week, predicts DUP MP

Sep 8,2022 11:40 pm

By Conor Neeson & Jessica ParkerBBC News

Democratic Unionist Party (DUP) MP Sammy Wilson has said he does not believe a deal on the Northern Ireland Protocol will be struck This Week .

There was concern the UK government had " an attitude of defeat" in its talks with the EU, he told Sky News .

He Said his party would not accept any agreement that would leave Northern Ireland subject to EU laws.

This comes as the EU's Maroš Šefčovič is set to speak with James Cleverly and Chris Heaton-Harris this afternoon.

The Talks with the UK Foreign Secretary and Northern Ireland 's secretary of state will take place via video-link.

Tánaiste (Irish deputy Prime Minister ) Micheál Martin said it was time to put " power-play" aside to get a solution.

The UK and the EU have been in talks for More Than a year to try to resolve issues with the protocol, a controversial set of post-Brexit trade rules for Northern Ireland .

Sources have suggested a deal could be sealed This Week , with momentum having built towards that at The End of last week.

But it now appears to be unlikely that be anything will announced until The Middle of the week at the earliest.

Speaking in Brussels on Monday, Mr Martin said the pace of negotiations had not slowed in recent days.

" What's very important is that everyone now from here on thinks about The People of Northern Ireland , " He Said .

" Not power-play, not politics Elsewhere - I think The People of Northern Ireland have had enough that, of people playing politics with their future. "

He met European Commission 's chief protocol negotiator Maroš Šefčovič for an update on the negotiations on Sunday Night .

Mr Martin appeared to suggest that Prime Minister Rishi Sunak had taken a more " problem-solving approach" than his predecessors in Number 10 and that talks had moved at a " slower pace" under previous PMs.

Mr Sunak held talks with European Commission President Ursula von de Leyen in Germany on Saturday in an effort to secure an agreement.

That came The Day after a visit to Northern Ireland .

It is among The Most vocal critics of the protocol and is blocking the functioning of devolved government in Northern Ireland in protest against the trade rules.

Securing The Party 's support for any deal will be crucial for The Future of the Political Institutions at Stormont.

After meeting the PM on Friday, DUP leader Sir Jeffrey Donaldson said " progress has been made across a range of areas".

What is the Northern Ireland Protocol?

It is the trade deal that was agreed to ensure The Free movement of goods across the Irish land border after Brexit.

It came into effect in 2021 and has resulted in checks on goods travelling from Great Britain to Northern Ireland .

Unionist parties argue that placing an effective trade border across the Irish Sea undermines Northern Ireland 's place within the UK.

The largest of those parties is the DUP, which is refusing to take part in Northern Ireland 's power-sharing government until its concerns are resolved.

But a majority of members of the Stormont assembly are in favour of the protocol in some form remaining in place.

Sinn Féin, The Alliance Party and the SDLP have said improvements to the protocol are needed to ease its implementation.
