Wouldn’t surprise anyone, man is a pathological liar
He signed the protocol, hence he agreed…no new info there
Of course he did. He signed a treaty that specifies exactly that. So did every single UK member of parliament that voted for ratification.
If the latter now say that Mr. Johnson deceived them then they are basically saying they are incompetent (i.e. they don’t read or inform themselves about the laws they’re supposed to scrutinize and debate) or that they ratified an international treaty in bad faith. Either explanation makes them unfit for public office. Johnson, of course, has a long history of self serving lies and he did indeed lie about what he had signed up to almost immediately, but none of that changes the legal force of the treaties he negotiated in the UK’s name: the ratification process is supposed to be the final debate and if it had been unacceptable it should have been rejected then and there.
Now that it has been ratified, the UK basically has two choices: uphold it or withdraw from it and from the TCA.
I’m sorry but if you are still taking Johnson at his word (and believing he’s an honest guy) you need to wake up.
He called an election to ditch the DUP blocking this, then won his parliamentary majority just on English mp seats, negotiated an Irish Sea customs border, boasted about how genius a deal it was and then once he ran out of ways to keep EU bashing alive he turned on the very thing he promised when he campaigned to get brexit done. .
The man has no morals, no ethics, no scruples and to be honest I can’t say for certain he has a reflection.
We should at no point be surprised by anything he’s done, if it helped him.
