No it doesn't GBN.
The UK made a decision, so it's the UK's responsibility to manage that decision.
Ireland were just vibing along, the UK did something stupid, and now they're supposed to change how they live??
If your neighbour built an extension, something went wrong, and it pulled down your adjoining wall, you'd be pretty fucking adamant your neighbour should be the one to fix it, not you.
Vibing along? Cool, man !
So every time you exercise your free will, you are doing something stupid?
Doesn't really matter much as only a truly independent court can decide what is reasonable, as we are no longer under the authority of the EU funded ECJ.
The fact is that the EU had openly threatened to invoke article 16 on a previous occasion themselves in connection with Covid vaccinations, so they are clearly being hypocritical, and that article includes the following:
"if the application of this Protocol leads to serious economic, societal or environmental difficulties that are liable to persist, or to diversion of trade, the Union or the United Kingdom may unilaterally take appropriate safeguard measures."
If we were not sufficiently prudent when the Treaty was being drafted, how did that clause get included?
