Northern Irish economy outperforming UK thanks to Brexit protocol: Experts: National Institute of Economic and Social Research says freedom to trade barrier-free ...
politico.eu/article/experts-brexit-protocol-is-boosting-northern-ireland-economy/
Quick Glance: Experts say the Northern Irish economy is outperforming the UK as a result of the Brexit protocol.
- According to the report, Northern Ireland's economic production "has slightly outperformed the U.K. average."
- Instead, as a less disruptive and more easily implemented option, the protocol demands one-way EU checks on British products coming in Northern Irish ports.
- Importantly, the protocol allows Northern Irish manufacturers, unlike the rest of the United Kingdom, to export barrier-free to the entire 27-nation EU.
- Democratic Unionists, who reject the agreement because it makes commerce with the Republic of Ireland easier than with the rest of the United Kingdom, claim it has increased Northern Irish retail prices by 27 percent – an accusation that is not supported by any publicly accessible evidence.
