when we say dup women — northern ireland. when we say dup women democratic - northern ireland. when we say i dup women democratic unionist party in northern ireland but to say that while that process is going on here in the uk, brussels says this is breaking international law and you can't unilaterally change an agreement we brokered with the eu after months and months are very tough negotiations. will this change in the protocol ever become a reality? government seems determined to at least have it there so that it can do that if it wanted to. the interesting thing is that as a result of the discussions the government has been having about getting to this stage it got you last night with a vote which got the first hurdle through, it has ——in the house of commons, the union has initiated legal proceedings against the uk for not implementing what it was supposed to have done under the protocol agreement which is having proper checks when goods get to northern ireland. that had been in the bays for a while. if you like, the eu was turning a blind eye to this but now because o

tom: minister, the dup supported brexit. you knew this was an eventuality, the europeans told you this was what was going to happen. mr. poots: that's absolute nonsense. they are two different issues in this respect. we are all for protecting the european union single market, but ensuring that all of that food has checks taking place is entirely unnecessary to protect the european union single market. what they european union have done has been grossly unfair, and very damaging to northern ireland. the grace period s, were it not for those, we would be feeling real pressure as a consequence of european actions. i don't understand why the european union is so against the peace process in northern ireland. francine: minister. mr. poots: we should be working, not constantly dealing with this issue. francine: i think there was an understanding the protocol was signed. we will reserve judgment when the dup goes back to power-sharing in stormont. is the legislation enough? mr. poots: the legislation deals with many of the issues.

the dup wants to prevent arriving here at belfast port, for example, from the rest of the uk, and it says it wants what it calls decisive action to remove the irish sea border, so on that basis, i don't think it is very likely that the dup will soften its stance whenever this legislation is published tomorrow, at the very least the dup will see how the legislation is pushed through. non unionists have said this legislation will break the brexit treaty and therefore breach international law by the northern ireland secretary has insisted that is not the case, so are the political discussion, the legal wrangling possibly will continue, no end to the stalemated which has seen northern ireland at a time when so many people are struggling with the rising cost of living. stay with us on bbc news, still to come: the first home—grown version of the mcdonald's restaurant re—opens in russia a month after the us chain pulled out because of ukraine. there was a bomb in the city centre. a code word known to be one used by the ira was given. army bomb experts were examining a suspect van when t

whilst the dup have welcomed what has happened today, they have not said they will be charging back into devolved government so that remains unresolved. also the legal position published by the government as well, they are making the argument this is a genuinely exceptional situation given the unique circumstances of northern ireland, and that is why reluctantly they have decided to act. this row though is onlyjust beginning. 0ur political editor chris mason, thank you. the proposed changes to the protocol are deeply divisive in northern ireland. while some businesses say they've struggled since the arrangements were introduced, others say they've adapted well, and don't want to put at risk their trade with europe. here's our ireland correspondent, emma vardy. upon the arrival of the protocol, it didn't take long for the effect on some northern ireland businesses to become clear. when i e—mailed them, would deliveries just be the same, and theyjust e—mailed me back and said, "no deliveries." for some, the new red tape for getting goods like plants or food or materials from britain ha

the irony is the dup still is not necessarily committing to joining the power-sharing executives given even this bill. that is because boris johnson essentially squandered the unionists trust when he signed up for the protocol in the first place. in terms of next steps, boris johnson has said if the eu retaliate with a trade war, that would be preposterous, a gross overreaction. it also risks dividing his conservative party. and not to mention the opposition this is likely to face in the house of lords. this could take at least a year to pass into law. dani: this is in the backdrop of concerns over the u.k. economy. we get employment numbers. what are we expecting, what does this mean for the boe? lizzy: of all the economic data coming up, these are the figures that the bank of england will care most about. the concern is that high inflation will combine with a tight labor market to create a wage price spiral and keep inflation driving. economists will fall to 3.6% inflation through april. you are likely to see the wage growth story which was more of an inflation story at the moment. t

we also heard from the dup on this, calling the behaviour in the video file and the deputy leader of sinn fein offering her solidarity to michaela mcareavey�*s family. a lot of anger, really come across the political spectrum over this. and also others coming out, too, saying that they can be identified in the video and may well face consequences for that. what is the reaction been from the family themselves? we what is the reaction been from the family themselves?— what is the reaction been from the family themselves? we have not heard directly from — family themselves? we have not heard directly from them _ family themselves? we have not heard directly from them yet. _ family themselves? we have not heard directly from them yet. of— family themselves? we have not heard directly from them yet. of course, - family themselves? we have not heard directly from them yet. of course, i - directly from them yet. of course, i mean, you know, this is obviously going to be high the offence of a situation that is a tragic killing, a number of years ago and in fact, temperament�*s part

potentially see a fairly well choreographed chain of events where the legislation is published, the dup makes those moves to see the assembly get back up and running, and then the eu does step in with proposals for flexibilities on what it has previously set out because thatis it has previously set out because that is what it has indicated might happen. if that were to be the case and events unfold like that, where would that leave sinn fein's position? how much has sinn fein actually benefited in terms of the arguments on the case for a united ireland as a result of the fallout of the protocol and brexit? firstly there are and _ of the protocol and brexit? firstly there are and have _ of the protocol and brexit? firstly there are and have been - of the protocol and brexit? firstly there are and have been quite i of the protocol and brexit? firstly i there are and have been quite some time proposals from the european commission for exactly the kind of flexibility that you have referred to. the protocol is working. there are sections of it where its application need to be finessed, there

i yeah, weather time here city hall, yellow and blue for the dup's. what a game. it was 9. yeah. beautiful night out there. a lot of folks probably still celebrating out of cheese. >> this why not? i mean, we just got some beautiful conditions all around the bay area. high pressure building over head. i think the next couple days we're going to warm these temperatures up nicely. kind topsy-turvy, though, this week ahead. you've got a ridge of high pressure trying to build in off the pacific at the same time, you can see thing still pretty active out there in the pacific, unusually active for this time of year. but here we go. i think we put this in motion. you'll notice that sea breeze is going to be more of a northerly sea breeze overnight tonight. and that should keep most of that fog away. and so we're going to wake up tomorrow morning with mostly clear skies even along the coastline, maybe a hint of a patch or 2 of fog, but not much. and then it looks like we're off and running with some nice temperatures by the afternoon. low forecast this work. it's fascinating. of course w

we also heard from the dup on this, calling the behaviour in the video file and the deputy leader of sinn fein offering her solidarity to michaela mcareavey�*s family. a lot of anger, really come across the political spectrum over this. and also others coming out, too, saying that they can be identified in the video and may well face consequences for that. what is the reaction been from the family themselves? we have not heard directly from them yet. of course, i mean, you know, this is obviously going to be high the offence of a situation that is a tragic killing, a number of years ago and in fact, temperament�*s partner still campaigns today to getjustice for what happened on honeymoon. a very tragic situation and one which the names here are quite well—known if you are in northern ireland, well known of course to fans in the nationalist community to because of that sporting connection so sinn fein's deputy leader had offered her solidarity with their families who, i am sure, will find that very, very difficult footage to view. four people have been killed in a train crash in

how do you get stormont up and running if the dup is that we are not returning to power—sharing until you ditch the protocol or elements of a? 15 years ago the question might�*ve been how do we have power—sharing when ian paisley is dup had just won as the single biggest party and promise not to go into government wish and fein. we can bring a previous examples over the last 25 years where it looked like power—sharing —— sinn fein. power—sharing was permanently closed only to resolve them. i do believe that that history will follow through again. it is important that ultimately the people in northern ireland are listen to, the vast majority want eight normal, functioning government, especially at this time in which all of us around the world are dealing with rising prices from inflation. what rising prices from inflation. what about the use _ rising prices from inflation. what about the use position _ rising prices from inflation. what about the use position on - about the use position on negotiation? is there enforcement of the protocol and the strict application of it pr

in fact, the biggest unionist party, the dup, is now blocking the formation of a new northern irish government in protest over it. here's one of its mps. the protocol is the kind of poison in the system. we have a forced coalition in northern ireland and that enforced coalition only works if, on major issues, there is a consent from both the unionist population and the nationalist population. there is no consent for the protocol from the unionist population, so therefore, in effect, we have a dysfunctional assembly anyway and the message we have been getting to the government is look before the assembly can ever be set up, the poison needs to be withdrawn from the system. the government says that the amendments it's proposing will make it easier to move goods between great britain and northern ireland. this is called a green lane. good heading into the eu across the irish border, they would face red lane checks. this is foreign secretary liz truss. there are very real problems that we are facing in northern ireland, first of all, on trade, we are seeing a trade diverted from east—west and no

legal proceedings, the uk saying there needs to be changes to the protocol, some trying to persuade the dup to get back into power sharing at stormont although as things stand they still say they want to see action rather than words, they are not biting simply because legislation has been put on the table, so i think this is a political slow burner which will keep going for a few weeks and months before we get to the crescendo of it all, and quite what thatis crescendo of it all, and quite what that is will be down to how successful any future negotiations are. . ~' successful any future negotiations are. ., ~ , ., successful any future negotiations are. ., ~' ., , are. thank you, nick eardley in westminster. _ are. thank you, nick eardley in westminster. let's _ are. thank you, nick eardley in westminster. let's return - are. thank you, nick eardley in westminster. let's return to i are. thank you, nick eardley in | westminster. let's return to the situation regarding rwanda with that first flight due to leave the uk at an undisclosed location later today. joining me now is karen doyle, an

parliament and that's just another example of the uk do summat about the northern ireland protocol and the dup were saying that they don't like the boards. that board that goes through gb and intel uk goes and gets rid of the border, they won't oblige. they are now saying they won't even think aboutjoining the executive until the bill is passed and that could take months because it was have lots of difficulty in the lords because the lords will be reluctant to sign up the lords will be reluctant to sign up easily on a bill that does so much damage to our international reputation. much damage to our international reutation. . ~ much damage to our international reutation. . ,, , ., ., much damage to our international reputation-— reputation. thank you for “oining us. the former * reputation. thank you for “oining us. the former prime _ reputation. thank you forjoining us. the former prime minister, l reputation. thank you forjoining i us. the former prime minister, the one before theresa may, said john major has been giving evidence into the infected blood scandal. some of the infected blo

to unionist this is an economic barrier which damages ireland's place in the union and therefore the dup is currently blocking the formation of a devolved government. northern ireland has been without a devolved government since february. the government since february. the government in london wanted to turn off some of the protocol aspects, for example remove checksum goods arriving here in northern ireland from the rest of the uk. they are not across the land border into the republic of ireland and therefore the european single market but opponents of the bill say this will breach international law. for example, the irish foreign minister releasing a pretty strong statement this morning saying he is hugely disappointed by what he regards as the british government unilateral unlawful approach.— the british government unilateral unlawful approach. thank you, chris, for talkin: unlawful approach. thank you, chris, fortalking us— unlawful approach. thank you, chris, for talking us through _ unlawful approach. thank you, chris, for talking us through the _ unlawful approach. thank you,
