The Windsor Framework: What it means for Northern Ireland

Four months of negotiations appear to have paid off – for now – as Rishi Sunak's plan for post-Brexit trade rules has been signed off by the EU. The prime minister met European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen – who also met King Charles - during her visit to the UK on Monday. The Northern Ireland Protocol - negotiated during Brexit talks to allow goods to move without checks across the border with the Republic of Ireland – has been problematic for the DUP, who boycotted power sharing in Stormont last summer because they were unhappy with the arrangement. On the Sky News Daily podcast, Niall Paterson is joined by our deputy political editor Sam Coates and Sky's senior Ireland correspondent David Blevins as we examine the deal itself and what it means for the prime minister, Northern Ireland and EU relations going forward.
