The European Union is reportedly threatening to target areas represented by government ministers and Brexiteers to pressure them not to scrap the Northern Ireland Protocol which gives it continuing power over the British province. 

Boris Johnson has been scorned by a senior Northern Irish politician for boasting of a so-called Freedoms Bill on the two-year anniversary of Brexit, with Brexit never having really been executed in the British province. 

As a party which would be naturally supportive of the Conservative Party, we welcomed David Cameron’s electoral success and the emergence of a Conservative government in 2010, writes Sammy Wilson MP…

The First Minister of Northern Ireland has launched a public petition to Parliament to scrap restrictions imposed on trade between the province and the British mainland by Boris Johnson’s deals with the European Union.

The Democratic Unionist Party has slammed the EU’s “degrading proposal” to allow Britain to leave the “backstop” envisioned in Theresa May’s proposed Brexit deal without their permission — as long as Northern Ireland is left behind.

There is a “special place in hell” for UK politicians who supported leaving the EU, Eurocrat Donald Tusk has claimed, but a Brexiteer has hit back, calling him a “devilish Euro maniac” in return.

Leading Democratic Unionist Party (DUP) MP Sammy Wilson has said now is the time to “exploit the cracks” appearing in the EU to win a better Brexit deal — and warned the Irish they will be tossed aside by the bloc when they can no longer be used as leverage.

Sammy Wilson MP has said that there is no way the Northern Irish Democratic Unionist Party (DUP) will support Prime Minister Theresa May’s EU Withdrawal Agreement, which Members of Parliament are due to vote on next week.

Brexiteer Labour MP Kate Hoey has said that the Republic of Ireland and the European Union have overblown the Irish backstop issue and “connived” to keep the UK close to the bloc to take its money.

Sammy Wilson, the Democratic Unionist Party (DUP) spokesman on Brexit, has rubbished claims by Chancellor Philip “Remainer Phil” Hammond and others that a “No Deal” exit from the European Union would plunge the United Kingdom into a post-apocalyptic situation.

Labour’s Kate Hoey had harsh words for Brussels on Friday, saying the United Kingdom did not spend 30 years battling IRA terrorists in Northern Ireland so “jumped-up EU bureaucrats” could carve off the British province as the price of Brexit.

The British government has been found in contempt of the Houses of Parliament for the first time in history, and will be forced to publish the full legal advice it received on Theresa May’s Brexit deal after it was defeated in a key Parliament vote Tuesday. 

Northern Irish MP Sammy Wilson has said the Prime Minister has “torn up” her Brexit promises and said the EU was using the Irish border issue to cut off the province from the rest of the UK. The comments to

Irish taoiseach (prime minister) Leo Varadkar has been slammed by British unionist politicians in Northern Ireland for using a photograph of an IRA bombing as Brexit leverage.

Talks between Brexit Secretary Dominic Raab and EU negotiator Michel Barnier have broken down, and ministers and civil servants have been told to have preparations for a ‘No Deal’ Brexit ready within weeks.
