Has Prime Minister Rishi Sunak got Brexit done?
  • last year
PM Rishi Sunak has made a statement in the House of Commons following the announcement of a deal with the EU on post-Brexit trading arrangements in Northern Ireland.
According to him, the agreement "permanently removes any sense of a border in the Irish Sea."
Labour will support the agreement, according to Sir Keir Starmer, because it will improve the UK's international standing.
Sir Jeffrey Donaldson, leader of the Democratic Unionist Party, says the agreement secures "significant progress," but he is concerned.
Sunak and EU Commissioner Ursula von der Leyen had earlier hailed a "decisive breakthrough" at a joint news conference.
