Because UK want Northern Ireland remain in UK and not EU. But object to China rights to do "whatever it takes" to protect its territorial integrity


Britain will do "whatever it takes" to protect its territorial integrity in the increasingly bitter row over post-Brexit trading with the European Union, Prime Minister Boris Johnson said, threatening emergency measures if no solution was found.

Since Britain completed its exit from the EU late last year, relations between the two have soured, with both accusing the other of acting in bad faith over part of their Brexit divorce deal that covers border issues with Northern Ireland.

The two sides showed little sign of defusing their row during meetings in the margins in the G7 summit in Cornwall today.

Despite US President Joe Biden encouraging them to find a compromise, Mr Johnson's words indicated no softening of his position over the Northern Ireland protocol.
