Minister admits changes to Brexit deal would break international law

It was one of those extraordinary parliamentary moments. (Subscribe: bit.ly/C4_News_Subscribe)
The Northern Ireland secretary admitted that the Government was intending to break international law - specifically the EU Withdrawal Agreement, which sets out how Britain and the EU would agree new rules on trade between Britain and Northern Ireland.
The Government is giving itself powers to decide on those rules unilaterally.
That decision has prompted the resignation of the Government's chief legal officer.

[@rodneyhenchliffe754]

@@AaronStarbuck Yes, it will be very interesting to see what happens. I was never sold the idea that it was ever about the fish (it wasn't), more about the EU using the poor little fishies to undermine UK coastal territory in rejection of UK SOVEREIGNTY. As for "fair competition" via state aid or creating a "level playing field", seriously how can a tiny little nation compete with a bigger block on a direct or international trade front? Perhaps the EU wants simply to tie our hands with their rules to hamper the UK for leaving their precious political project. That's not the same as respecting our independence. Are we to accept this and be served that we are a vassal state? The EU has not accepted our freedom to become an independent entity from them. Political control has to be taken from these globalists in order to restore decision making more locally in the UK. Sorry for the rant!
