The new Brexit deal for Northern Ireland must not be allowed to lead to more instability at Stormont, says Naomi Long., agreed between the UK and the EU this week, changes the operation of the controversial post-Brexit trade arrangements known as the Northern Ireland Protocol.
For the past year the DUP has not participated in the Stormont institutions in protest against the protocol."The Windsor Framework is generally a much better deal than the Johnson/Frost protocol, which we have always acknowledged was clunky and bureaucratic and which needed to be refined," says the Alliance Party leader.contained within the new framework gives MLAs a greater say in opposing new EU laws that would apply in Northern Ireland.
Mrs Long says the Stormont brake is at risk of being abused, citing past uses of the petition of concern mechanism to block legislation that had majority support in the assembly.
