Johnson's Brexit Violation Plan Adopted in Parliament
Johnson's Brexit violation plan is adopted in parliament.
British Prime Minister Boris Johnson's 'Internal Market Bill' passed the first vote.
The 'Internal Market Draft Bill', which includes the British
Prime Minister Boris Johnson's plan to violate the Brexit agreement, was put to vote in the parliament yesterday.
In the voting held, the Internal Market Draft Bill was passed with 340 votes to 263. The bill will be negotiated for 4 more days. In 4 days, parliamentarians will have the power to change the bill completely.
Prime Minister Boris Johnson said this step was necessary, on the grounds that the European Union (EU) refused to "remove the gun from the table" in trade agreement talks.
In the previous period, the EU stated that Johnson's draft law would put the
EU-UK trade agreement negotiations in an impasse; He drew attention to the fact that difficult times await Britain after Brexit. In addition, the EU warned that violating the former prime ministers was an unusual move that would undermine the country's reputation.
Despite all this, Boris Johnson had said that this bill was necessary in order to respond to Brussels' "absurd" threats.
The Trade Status of Northern Ireland is the Cause of the Conflict
The dispute between the two sides stems from Northern Ireland's trade status after leaving the
EU.
In accordance with the Brexit agreement signed by the parties, border gates will not be included in the movement of goods between
Northern Ireland and the EU member Ireland, which shares a land border. However, some restrictions will apply to trade between Northern Ireland and the UK island separated by sea. The UK government stands against these restrictions.
In his speech on the subject, Johnson stated that this situation threatened the unity of the United Kingdom, “The EU has not removed this pistol from the table yet. We can no longer ignore an incident that our EU counterparts believe they have the power to dismantle our country. '' He used expressions.
The European Union (EU) asked the UK to suspend this draft until the end of September; otherwise, they announced at the end of the year that a trade agreement with Britain could not be realized.
In fact, to prove serious, the European Commission postponed decisions allowing Securities clearing and depository institutions in London to trade for customers using the euro in the EU, as Reuters reported.
Negotiations Will Continue For 4 Days
The bill is expected to bring many amendment proposals, with some members of the Conservative Party led by Boris Johnson also reacting to it.
Among the bills in question is a bill by Bob Neill of the Conservative Party, which includes parliamentary approval before exercising powers that violate the Brexit Agreement.
