UK always intended to ditch NI Protocol?

"His remarks have caused alarm in Dublin, where the former taoiseach Leo Varadkar, who negotiated the Northern Ireland protocol with Johnson at a meeting in Wirral in October 2019, said that, if true, they showed the government could not be trusted."

No shit.

I mean, what part of Boris Johnson's resume led anyone to believe they could trust him? What part of Grant Schapps' career as editor of his own Wiki page and secret identity makes you believe you can trust him? What part of 'stab your best mate in the back if you think he is going to be PM' Gove makes you think you can trust him?

They'll fuck you over in the bedroom, the boardroom and the stateroom. Its in their nature - like the scorpion and the frog.

Kill 150,000 people by pursuing herd immunity as a strategy. Giving multimillion pound contracts to their pub landlord. Lying, cheating, stealing... no moral code constrains them. they thirst like vampires and its the life blood of democracy and political convention that they drink.

We are living through a fuel crisis, a cost of living crisis, a health crisis, a supply chain crisis, every industry is on its knees, every business hocked up to its eyeballs in debt and they are sunning themselves in a £25K a week villa in Marbella owned by their mate.

But they don't foot the bill. Not for their holidays, their wallpaper, their many, many deliberate mistakes. Nobody holds them to account.

"the government could not be trusted"

Really Leo? Just now you figured that one out. A government elected on sticking it Europe, who likes to fucking 'stick it' to and in anything without thinking about the consequences of their actions might, conceivably, choose to stick it to you? Because apparently the people who voted them in love it when they do that, like its fucking Game of fucking Thrones on a multibillion pound budget.

And all we are is fucking Hot Pie.
