Rishi Sunak has outlined the final ‘three boxes’ of Brexit deal that need to be ‘ticked’ in order to secure a deal with the EU.
Speaking at Prime Minister’s Questions, Mr Sunak said the Government is “still in active discussions with the European Union”.
The Prime Minister said he is a “Conservative, a Brexiteer and a Unionist”, adding that “any agreements that we reach needs to take all three boxes.”
Mr Sunak said a deal would “need to ensure sovereignty for Northern Ireland”, need to act as a “safeguard Northern Ireland’s place in our union” and it needs to “find practical solutions to the problems faced by people and businesses”.
Addressing Sir Keir Starmer – who asked about the proposed EU deal – the Prime Minister added: “I will be resolute in fighting for what is best for Northern Ireland and the United Kingdom.”
