Boris Johnson reveals he’ll vote AGAINST Rishi Sunak’s Northern Ireland Brexit deal today – & says it’s ‘not acceptable’

BORIS Johnson today revealed he will vote AGAINST Rishi Sunak’s new Northern Ireland Brexit deal.

In a major snub to his successor, the ex-PM will join the Democratic Unionist Party and a handful of hardline Brexiteers opposing the Windsor Framework in the Commons today.

In a statement early this morning, Boris described the deal as “unacceptable”.

He said: “The proposed arrangements would mean either that Northern Ireland remained captured by the EU legal order – and was increasingly divergent from the rest of the U.K – or they would mean that the whole of the U.K. was unable properly to diverge and take advantage of Brexit.

“That is not acceptable. I will be voting against the proposed arrangements today.”
