Sunak held hostage by ‘malcontent’ Tory MPs over Northern Ireland

The UK government is struggling to reach a Brexit deal on Northern Ireland, with Labour accusing Rishi Sunak of being at the mercy of “malcontent” Tory MPs. The DUP and the ERG are demanding to see the legal detail of the deal before they accept it, and want a dual regulatory regime in Northern Ireland. Sir Keir Starmer said the country has to wait while the prime minister takes on his own MPs. Sunak has briefed business leaders on the deal, but there is a risk it could fall apart if he loses his nerve to push it through. Follow my Facebook group for more updates on the situation.
