Sinn Fein’s Stormont leader said the US President had been invited to address the Stormont Assembly.
Monday will be a dramatic day as British PM Rishi Sunak attempts to win support for a new Northern Protocol.
The former Prime Minister swore last week while dismissing claims that Mr Sunak had to revise the post-Brexit Protocol arrangements to win favour with pro-Irish US President Joe Biden.
Former prime minister Boris Johnson might not be open to supporting a proposed deal over the Northern Ireland protocol from the Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, a Guardian report suggests. The prime minister is now under pressure to revive a controversial bill that would unilaterally override parts of the Brexit treaty. It has emerged that lawyers advising Eurosceptics in the Conservative party have submitted fresh proposals to Sunak to end the rule of EU law in Northern Ireland. Notably, it is one of the points of contention in the UK-EU negotiations.
Blundering Boris Johnson’s intervention in the bid by Britain and the European Union to finally resolve the dispute over the controversial Northern Ireland Protocol may have contributed to delaying a settlement.
