Johnson's Surrender Deal (TRIGGER WARNING)

[Old Greg]

This was Johnson last year:

"We would be damaging the fabric of the Union with regulatory checks and even customs controls between Great Britain and Northern Ireland on top of those extra regulatory checks down the Irish Sea that are already envisaged in the withdrawal agreement,

"Now, I have to tell you that no British Conservative government could or should sign up to any such arrangement."

Mind you, Sinn Féin seem happy enough today:

“As a party, Sinn Féin has worked to defend Irish interests from the worst impacts of Brexit. It was Sinn Féin who first made the case for a ‘designated special status for the north within the EU’ and it was Sinn Féin who insisted on the protection of the Good Friday Agreement and no hard border on the island of Ireland as bottom lines. We have also insisted that no veto can be given to Unionism.”

The question that now has to be asked, who are the winners and who are the losers? Well we know who the losers are but not quite too sure who has won, if anything has been won....

Ireland and the NI nationalists and Republicans would be winners if the Surrender Deal gets through Parliament.

Very unlikely in reality, although anything is possible in the parallel universe where you choose to exist.

Parallel to the universe in which spud bashing squaddies are international military telecommunications experts.
