Excellent as always from @hayward_katy “Northern Ireland has become emblematic of the UK’s Brexit project” https://t.co/cR44gGwt1w

I’ve been meeting politicians in Stormont today (reports to follow) and one unionist MLA burst out laughing and said “is that serious question?” when I asked how much they believed Johnson sincerely cared about NI https://t.co/OYegrWKw8R

It's an abiding mystery to me that those that profess to care so much about sovereignty as a matter of deepest principle seem to be so deeply offended by Ireland and other EU member states exercising their own sovereign right to make decisions based on their own interests.
