If you're seeing the latest UK statements on the Northern Ireland Protocol, here's what Boris Johnson and his colleagues have said about the Protocol and the Brexit deal from 2019 through to now. The UK argues its current implementation means the Protocol now has to change.

The UK government is preparing to unilaterally disavow an international treaty signed by the UK government fewer than three years ago. Worse, their 80-seat majority was built upon the now proven lie that it was a wonderful treaty that would signal the end of Brexit negotiations.

BREAKING: Met Police announce they have now made over 100 referrals for fixed penalty notices over partygate.
That makes Downing Street one of the biggest - if not THE biggest - rule breaking venue in Britain.

Brexit hardman Steve Baker claims Johnson signed the Brexit deal 'under duress'. Odd that critics of it were dismissed as 'Remoaners' while his ERG colleague Iain Duncan Donuts stood up in the House of Commons to mock the notion that MPs might need more time to scrutinise it.

I’ve watched our interview back a few times now.
Still trying to work out what happened.
I hope Mr Gove is ok.
Levelling Up Secretary Michael Gove adopts various accents as he denies split between Boris Johnson and the Treasury on how to tackle cost of living

BPC members lost £85 million in chicken exports to EU last year as a result of unreciprocated controls. They now will continue to face the burdens, costs & red tape that hinder fair competition until Oct 2023.

Taking your dog to mainland Europe by train/ferry: I've now updated seat61.com/dogs-by-train.htm to explain things. This £140 health form with more stamps than a 1970s Soviet transit visa has replaced the simple & inexpensive Pet Passport scheme - yet another Brexit dividend...

Why do we subsidise MPs booze in the Commons but we don’t subsidise poor people choosing to heat or eat?

Every day, hotel guests leave behind millions of half-used bars of soap.

The answer led him down a path that has since saved tens of thousands of lives around the world.

BREAKING: High Court rules that Government broke the law by discharging patients from hospital to care homes at the outset of the pandemic.

In the 1990s, the government invited companies to bid to computerise the Post Office
The cheapest bid won but there were bugs and glitches in the system from the start
It led to one of the most widespread miscarriages of justice in British legal history
