British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has reached a deal with the European Union on post-Brexit trade rules for Northern Ireland. Sunak said the deal will remove “any sense of border in the Irish sea.” Speaking in Belfast, Sinn Féin Vice President Michelle O’Neill welcomed the deal.
Michelle O’Neill: “What I’ve said consistently throughout the whole of the Brexit debate is that the people here have been left in limbo, they’ve been left with uncertainty. I’m hoping that today — because we’re at the end of the negotiation, the deal is now done — I’m hoping that today all energy and efforts focus at home here to making politics work and actually getting around the executive table.”
