Senior minister leaves open possibility UK could pass law to disapply parts of framework

Michael Gove has warned the EU that “no option is off the table”, including ignoring parts of the Northern Ireland protocol, after the UK argued the solution put forward by Brussels last October would worsen food shortages.

Speaking on BBC Breakfast on Wednesday, Gove said: “We are going to negotiate with the EU in order to get the best possible outcome for the people of Northern Ireland, but no option is off the table. It comes after Truss, the foreign secretary, criticised proposals put forward by the EU last October for “failing to properly address the real issues affecting Northern Ireland and in some cases would take us backward”.She said Lincolnshire sausages and other chilled meats from Great Britain would need a veterinary certificate to enter Northern Ireland and food from outside the EU, such as Thai green curry ready meals, New Zealand lamb and Brazilian pork, would not be available in the shops.

Boris Johnson is backing Truss, making clear to the Irish taoiseach Micheál Martin on Tuesday that the situation with the protocol was “very serious”.
