  • Speaking in the Commons, Jim Allister said many companies have stopped trading with Northern Ireland.

The article from MSN discusses the current state of trade between Northern Ireland (NI) and Great Britain (GB) as described by Hilary Benn, the Labour chair of the Northern Ireland Affairs Committee. Benn highlights that despite the complexities introduced by Brexit, goods are still flowing relatively smoothly between the two regions. He acknowledges the efforts of businesses and authorities in adapting to the new trade rules, which include checks and paperwork for goods moving from GB to NI. Benn also notes that while there are ongoing issues, particularly with the Northern Ireland Protocol, the situation has not deteriorated as much as some had feared. He emphasizes the importance of finding a pragmatic solution to the protocol's challenges to ensure continued stability and economic integration.
