Abstract

Four years ago, in early 2019, when Theresa May was still Prime Minister (PM) and had failed to achieve Parliament’s agreement for the withdrawal deal she’d struck with the European Union (EU), there was heated discussion about how the one part of the United Kingdom which shared a land border with it would be treated. That part of the UK is Northern Ireland (NI).

Northern Ireland was instrumental in undermining May’s premiership.

Four years on it could prove equally problematic for current PM Rishi Sunak.
