A Bill which allows the British government to override parts of the Northern Ireland Protocol is “reckless and disgraceful”, Sinn Féin’s Stormont leader Michelle O’Neill has said.

But DUP leader Jeffrey Donaldson has said it is right that the UK government has acted on the protocol and said he would read the Bill against his party’s tests for removing the Irish Sea border.
