The Northern Ireland Protocol on its DEATH BED - After Brexit

Our favourite subject is back - BREXIT 

Guardian - Live Blog: Reports in its 12.54pm post the following, " Johnson restates threat to abandon Northern Ireland protocol, saying Good Friday agreement more important.....Johnson says the Northern Ireland protocol threatens the Good Friday agreement. It needs to be sorted out....The Good Friday agreement is the more important of the two agreements, because it is older, he suggests.   "

Lets Get Real:

The Assembly elections in Northern Ireland has given the Nationalists more seats in the Assembly than the Unionist side, thus they get to nominate the FIRST MINISTER, but this can only happen if the Unionists come on board and nominate a Deputy Minister, neither officer holders can do anything without the approval of the other, and the Unionists have made it clear, no ASSEMBLY without the removal of the Northern Ireland Protocol, thus No 10 has no choice but to invoke Article 16 of the Withdrawal Agreement to suspend the protocol, the EU will hit the roof, its their fault, they have been slow and stubborn, and if the EU as the UK wants the Assembly to work they either move or the UK does, it is that simple, it is what it is.  The UK PM does not need the strife of no Assembly in the Northern Ireland, thus he must invoke Article 16 and have a bloody row with the EU, better than blood on the street in Belfast and other areas in the Province. 

Finland and Sweden a BIG BONUS for NATO - Ukraine - Russian War - New Cold War

Sky News - Live Blog: Reports in its 1.35pm post the following, " Finland and Sweden would bolster NATO's military capabilities significantly......If they are to join NATO, Finland would have one of the largest armies in the military alliance.  "

Lets Get Real:

One can see why the Kremlin is WORRIED, the last thing they need is a WAR with Finland, the Ukrainian Army is giving the Russian Army a bloody nose, and it is reported that thousands of Russian Soldiers have been killed in the Ukraine, more than were killed in the 1979 - 1989 War in Afghanistan, the failure in Afghanistan is seen as one of the factors in the fall of the USSR.  Putin's Kremlin must know his regime is on the LINE, when the Russian people finally smell the coffee and see the disaster the WAR WITH THE UKRAIEN has been will they turn on the Regime, as the people did with the TSAR in 1917 and with the Coup plotters in 1991, this was the final nail in the coffin of the USSR.  Putin has gone through his nine lives, how much more failure can the Russian cope with, and when will they see through the BS. 

UK will defend Finland and Sweden if ATTACKED - Russian - Ukraine War - New Cold War 2

BBC News - Live Blog: Reports the following in its 12.37pm post, " Johnson offers support if Sweden or Finland come under attack....The prime minister has said he will support Sweden and Finland if they come under attack - amid debate within both nations about whether to join the Nato alliance.  "

Lets Get Real:

The Kremlin has made threatening noises should Finland and Sweden join NATO.  This move by the UK PM is a clear message to Putin to, BACK OFF, if the democracies decide to join NATO then they will protected by Article 5, an attack on one is an attack all, the point of applying and becoming a member could be a time for the Russians to attack Finland, the Country shares a LONG BORDER with Russia.  The last time Russia attacked Finland it was given a bloody nose, this shows that small Countries take on a larger Country.  In the modern era this is what the Ukraine is doing against Russia.  One hopes the Russian Bear has not to be taught another bloody lesson by Finland and the UK.
