HERE YOU GO DOLLYER ... LOOKING AFTER NO 1 ..Taoiseach Micheál Martin has said he is not optimistic about the prospect of a deal being reached between the United Kingdom and the European Union and acknowledged the Government is preparing for the prospect of a no-deal Brexit.

“Trust has been eroded”, Mr Martin said on Thursday as the EU and UK prepared to hold emergency talks on the implementation of the Withdrawal Agreement, under which the UK will leave the EU.

Relations between the EU and UK plunged to their worst level since the Brexit vote in 2016 on Wednesday when the British government published intended legislation which will violate the withdrawal treaty signed by the two sides last year, throwing the future of trade talks into doubt.


Asked about the detail of that call on Thursday, Mr Martin told RTÉ Radio One’s Morning Ireland: “Trust has been eroded but he made it clear to me that the UK was fully committed to meeting the obligations of protecting the single market and fluidity of trade north and south.”

Asked how he thought Ireland could believe this assertion, Mr Martin said: “The legislation runs counter to that”.

The controversial legislation, the UK Internal Market Bill, gives British ministers the power to decide unilaterally how parts of the Northern Ireland protocol in the withdrawal agreement should be implemented and disapplies parts of the treaty.

When asked if he believed there would be a no-deal Brexit, Mr Martin said Ireland was “preparing for that prospect”.

Maroš Šefcovic, who monitors the implementation of agreements designed to avoid a border across the island of Ireland on behalf of the European Commission, has left Brussels for London for an extraordinary meeting of the joint EU-UK committee on implementation.


Mr Šefcovic, who co-chairs the committee, asked his counterpart British cabinet minister Michael Gove for an extraordinary meeting after the British government acknowledged its bill would break international law.

“The EU seeks clarifications from the UK on the full and timely implementation of the Withdrawal Agreement,” European Commission chief spokesman Eric Mamer said as he announced the meeting.

The latest round of negotiations between the EU and UK are ongoing in London this week, but the British government’s plan has been received in Brussels as a serious threat to the talks that diminishes the prospect a deal can be reached.

“This will have a deep impact and I hope it is some sort of dead cat negotiating stance rather than a real stand they will take,” Maltese Christian Democrat MEP Roberta Metsola, who coordinates the European Parliament’s justice committee, told The Irish Times.

“We are united and we are absolutely clear that whatever happens we will be united in protecting the interests of Ireland.”

Speaking on RTÉ Mr Martin said he believed there were two options, either a limited trade deal or no deal at all.

Mr Martin said he had “made it very clear in no uncertain terms” in his telephone call with Mr Johnson that Ireland’s opposition to the “unilateral” decision by the UK to breach an international treaty and its obligations.

The Taoiseach said that when a government enters into an agreement, their own parliament approves it, then that has implications for the future. Publishing a bill such as happened this week, suggested plans to break their commitment to international law.

Brazen
Sinn Féin leader Mary Lou McDonald told the programme that the principles by which agreements are made matter and have to be honoured.

It was not acceptable for the UK to depart from the withdrawal agreement in such a dramatic and brazen way. To do so will have a huge impact on relations between the two islands and north and south.


Ms McDonald said that comments by the UK’s health secretary Matt Hancock demonstrated again “that the Tories regard Ireland as little more than a pawn.” Mr Hancock’s claim that the new legislation would strengthen peace was “astonishing” she said. The UK had broken its word and violated an undertaking made only last year.

Ireland needed to rely on all its capacity, the international rule of law and contacts in the EU and the US.

THE LEGEND DONNY T ...Woodward recorded the president telling him in February that the coronavirus was "deadly," then telling him in March that he "always" downplayed its impact.
Trump reasoned that he did not want to spread panic, and the White House has said he has never lied to the American public.
Bernstein on Wednesday accused the president of endangering the health of Americans in order to further his reelection interests, framing it as "a kind of homicidal negligence."

NOW YOU KNOW WHY .The Government will frame next month’s Budget on the basis of a no-deal Brexit and will not bring in any major taxation increases, Minister for Finance Paschal Donohoe has confirmed.

At a pre-budget briefing, Mr Donohoe said Budget 2021 will focus on providing further support to the coronavirus-hit economy.

He said the budget would be based on two assumptions that “from the beginning of next year, bilateral trade between the UK and the EU will be on World Trade Organisation terms; and that, in the absence of a vaccine, the economy – and broader society – must co-exist with the virus.”

Mr Donohoe said the Cabinet had agreed that broad-based increases in taxation would be counter-productive at this stage and there would be no change to income tax credits or bands.
