The government had made ‘great progress’ negotiating with the European Union.
We're not there yet, but it would be a really important deal.
I think it would mark a paradigm shift first and foremost for the communities in Northern Ireland, but I think it would be a significant achievement.
If there are any new rules that would apply in relation to Northern Ireland, it must be right that there is a Northern Irish democratic check on that.
The UK wants to see a move away from checks on every consignment of goods coming into Northern Ireland from the rest of the UK.
