Rishi Sunak visits Northern Ireland to sell his Brexit deal

First you make the deal - then you sell it. Fresh off his success in finally securing a post-Brexit trading arrangement with the EU, the Prime Minister now faces the equally challenging task of getting politicians and businesses in Northern Ireland on board.
(Subscribe: bit.ly/C4_News_Subscribe)
And although many think the Windsor Framework is an inevitability - the embrace of the document, especially by Unionists- is seen as key to the future of power-sharing, and functioning government, in Stormont. Paul McNamara has this.

Sunak selling what we all had pre Brexit, as an amazing and unique opportunity for NI is soo fucking comical.

[@matthewbell4273]

The UK didn't have the ability to execute its own trade deals pre-Brexit - now we can. If anything, Sunak is underselling NI's unique position. It is not just access to 2 markets, but rather 3: to the EU Single Market via RoI (as pre-Brexit); within the UK Single Market via GB (as pre-Brexit); and to all the countries with whom the UK has signed a trade deal (which is only possible post-Brexit).
