Any move to undermine Protocol could destabilise NI - Martin
The Taoiseach Micheál Martin has said any move to undermine the Northern Ireland Protocol would"have a destabilising effect on Northern Ireland".
"The British government needs to work professionally with the European Union to resolves any issues relating to the Protocol," he said. He said the Northern Ireland Assembly and Executive need to be restored as"democracy means that's there's a duty on all parties to fulfill the mandate given to them by the people" and when set up they contribute to the resolution of issues around the Protocol.
Meanwhile, Sinn Féin leader Mary Lou McDonald accused Mr Johnson of engaging in a"dangerous game of brinkmanship" over the Northern Ireland Protocol, and warned that Ireland can't be used as a"pawn".
