Depends on what has been agreed (re wider UK implications). The main thing I can think of is food/drink standards. Previously the UKgov declined an agrifood agreement (SPS) with the EU as in doing so would prevent them lowering UK agrifood standards to accommodate FTS with the likes of New Zealand etc.
If it now agrees to meet EU standards (to soften the east west border) will be much harder for UK plc to negotiate FTAs elsewhere.
As always the devil will be in the detail!

UK Govt: Today, the age of marriage & civil partnerships in England & Wales has raised from 16 to 18.
This will protect children from coercion & abuse.

16 with parental consent I think it was but in Scotland you don't need parental consent
Rishi Sunak says new deal:
1. Allows free flow of trade via green lane from GB to NI
2. Westminster takes control of VAT via treaty text change. Pet travel and medicines requirements
3. Sovereignty - EU law ‘minimum necessary’ to avoid hard border; Stormont Break on new regulations
Not too bad for Rishi.... surely DUP can be happy with that. Compromise is key for this big issue
Tax powers - VAT tax cuts in UK will now apply in Northern Ireland. Despite being against EU law.
Pragmatism eh?
Who’d have thought?
Me as it happens 😂😂
Have we decided its pragmatic without sewing details of how it will work?

It’s pragmatic when two sides sit down together to attempt to find resolution to what both regard as concerning enough to realise it has to be addressed.
Other than the DUP who would argue that any colour is orange, everyone appears to believe it is a good workable deal for both sides.
There’s also the desire for once to actually make it work.
So yes, I’ve decided that’s pragmatic
Takes a Tory leader to sort out another Tory leaders mess after a unnecessary referendum instituted by a different Tory leader.
Nearly brought the end to power-sharing in NI.
This could all have been avoided if we'd stayed in the CIU..but no..the Tories wanted the hardest Brexit possible.
Just watching C4 News, Krishnan and Baker are mates again.

So does Little Rishi, the master deal-making statesman, have the balls to force the DUP back into the assembly, take their seat as Deputy First Minister under Sinn Fein and insist they abide by the democratic process which they have so far thumbed their nose at?
Does he have the gumption to remove the salaries(which are still being paid despite the unionist boycott) from those that refuse to take their place in NI's devolved Parliament?
...stop sniggering at the back, Little Rishi will do what needs to be done to support democracy...
You’re a Spanish tomato farmer. You usually sell 20 tons to the UK and 80 tons in the EU.
You only produce 50 tons this year. Do you still split it between UK/EU, or just sell the lot in the EU because it’s a single market and just plain easier.
Brexit. Borders. Barriers.

BREXIT FOOOKING BRITAIN
NEW: Rough sleeping has risen in England for the first time since 2017. Number estimated to be sleeping rough on a single night in autumn 2022 is 3061. That’s:
UP 26% from 2021
DOWN 35% from 2017.
UP 74% from 2010.
Sunak really just bigged up the NI deal by saying:
‘Northern Ireland will have access to the UK market and to the European single market, and that’s an incredibly attractive proposition for investors’.

Literally championing the single market, and the arrangements the entire country benefited from prior to self imposed sanctions.

Spanish farmers are just being pragmatic.
Would love to join in the chat lads, but I'm just enjoying a late lunch of gazpacho soup and cucumber sandwiches, followed by stuffed roast peppers out on the patio

Thing is, UK Plc still hasn't fully implemented its agrifood, sanitary and phytosanitary (SPS) border yet.
https://www.bifa.org/news/articles/2022/may/defra-clarification-of-border-controls-after-1-july-2022
They'll eventually have to, as the public health risks of not checking a whole range of agrifood imports are obvious. Which will create further impediments for those wishing to export to the UK.
As noted above, if you are a business, weighing up markets to invest into, the larger market, with less red tape/costs is always going to represent the more attractive investment.
Is ridiculus
Went grocery shoppin last Saturday n they had melons n strawberries ffs
Its farkin Feberuary
