Embarrassing For Our Nation

In the Brexit dispute, the pressure on British Prime Minister Boris Johnson is growing. Former heads of government Tony Blair and John Major called on parliament to resist across party lines and shamelessly called Johnson's plan to introduce a law to re-drill the long-standing EU exit agreement. In a joint article published in the Sunday Times, they called on UK MPs to reject the law." The actions of this government are shameful to themselves and embarrassing for our nation ," wrote the former Prime Ministers.
Johnson wants to use the so-called Single Market Act to undo crucial contractual clauses on Northern Ireland, which were controversial from the start. They are intended to prevent a fixed border from developing between British Northern Ireland and the EU state Ireland.The London government has admitted that the transaction would violate international law.

Resistance also from parliament

Blair and Major have always opposed Britain's divorce from the European Union. Both also played an important role in ending the decades-long and bloody Northern Ireland conflict. But there is also considerable resistance in the British Parliament, which is planning to debate the law soon. According to media reports, around 30 Conservative MPs oppose the law. Johnson, however, has a majority of 80 votes in the lower house. Labor leader Keir Starmer accused Johnson of having turned the clock back. There was also sharp criticism from the House of Lords. Words of warning from the EU With an urgent appeal in the Telegraph, Johnson tried to convince the critics of his Brexit course. He attacked the EU sharply. The countered in the person of EU negotiator Michel Barnier on Twitter.
The agreements on Northern Ireland "do not threaten the integrity of the United Kingdom. We negotiated this delicate compromise with Boris Johnson and his administration to maintain peace and stability on the island of Ireland. We could not have been clearer about the consequences of Brexit." " In a second tweet, Barnier urged to stick to the facts.

Fear of death knell for commercial contract

For the EU, the law is clearly a violation of the law. Brussels therefore asked London to give in by the end of September at the latest. Critics fear that the planned law could be the death knell for the trade agreement that is to regulate future economic relations. After the end of the Brexit transition phase, there is a risk of a hard break with tariffs and high trade barriers without a contract.
