  5. Joel Keys:

    The Northern Ireland Protocol is interesting because I think loyalism has a point – and I think there’s a legitimate argument to be made that a customs border between Northern Ireland and Britain – similar to the way a border across the island, is wrong. But is The Northern Ireland Protocol the case that these are the issues that people in my community are discussing ? No. If you went out and did a survey and asked people in loyalist areas what is The Northern Ireland Protocol – I ’d be willing to bet that over half of them would n’t be able to tell you – there’s more important issues.
