If a Northern Ireland Agreement with the EU is close it would be wise to publish draft text so the people who will have to live with it can comment. It needs consent by Unionists.
@johnredwood Ridiculous..let people see the fine print..it isnt going anywhere without scrutiny... The ERG has no role in the affairs of the UK.
@johnredwood Why do they get the veto on everything when they are no longer the majority of the population?
@johnredwood Need consent by Nationalilists?
@johnredwood O dear John Don't you realise that the unionist are no longer the majority in NI and cannot be allowed to hold the rest of England Scotland Wales the l People of Ireland 🇮🇪 and the European Union to Ransom or threatened violence against the Irish state or NI
@johnredwood In a democracy it simply needs the consent of the majority. If you really meant that John, you’d want ALL the people of NI to have their say. And if that happened it would be drop stupid Brexit (as it would be in all of the UK). Don’t pretend you’re pro-democracy. #BrexitLies
@johnredwood Back home here in Berkshire, John, nobody cares about NI
@johnredwood I dunno man, “we shouldn’t force something on the Northern Irish people if they don’t want it” feels like a dangerous thread for Brexiters to be pulling at…
@johnredwood Absolutely, Sir John. ALL persons likely to be affected by this agreement need the time to study it and provide feedback to their elected representatives.
@johnredwood Surely in a democracy just the majority of those living in Northern Ireland, Unionist or not.
