All the member states are happy. i can t believe they have not been keptin can t believe they have not been kept in a loop. the eu has remained true to its worth, within the framework of this deal what we need to see now is whether they dup and conservative mps are happy to live with the protocol, albeit one that is being implemented in a slightly different way, that many of them said that they want to ditch fundamentally rewrite, that would be the key question. the key question. thank you very much. the key question. thank you very much- let s the key question. thank you very much. let s cross the key question. thank you very much. let s cross now the key question. thank you very much. let s cross now live - the key question. thank you very much. let s cross now live to - much. let s cross now live to belfast, these other live shots. we are expecting the dup to come and a statement shortly on those talks that have been happening this morning. so for we have heard that they have
Backbenches, he also needs to avoid being criticised by his own mps. as a political balancing act for him to carry out over the next few days, to try and sell this. try and sell this. looking across to the eu, try and sell this. looking across to the eu. eu try and sell this. looking across to the eu, eu leaders try and sell this. looking across to the eu, eu leaders initially- try and sell this. looking across to the eu, eu leaders initially said i the eu, eu leaders initially said that they would not be stepping down. this is politics, of course anything can change. nothing has officially been signed, but clearly something has changed. what officially been signed, but clearly something has changed. what the eu has said all along something has changed. what the eu has said all along is something has changed. what the eu has said all along is that something has changed. what the eu has said all along is that they - something has changed. what the eu has said all along is tha
