the Northern Ireland protocol is a difficult issue and in some respects the governments position is that the EU'#s stance in adopting rules written 25 years ago is a fair one. Apparently, M&S have to complete an 800 page document to transfer goods from the UK to Ireland, and they are looking to streamline that process so goods going into NI and staying there aren't part of the protocol. This seems sensible to me. They also want to move away from the paper trail favoured by the EU and move towards a digital solution. What is a concern is that the EU have not even adopted a digital solution as of today.
Still, the Tories and those who supported Brexit were warned this would happen. Who knew that actions had consequences.
