What is the Northern Ireland Protocol and what issues are Prime Minister Rishi Sunak negotiating ? skydavidblevins has the latest 📺 Sky 501, Virgin 602, Freeview 233 and YouTube

Because Ireland remains in the EU, a new arrangement was needed to reflect the EU's strict food rules and border checks.
