a smile that said a deal had been done. today's agreement delivers smooth flowing trade within the whole united kingdom protects northern islands place and our union and safeguards sovereignty for the people of northern ireland. the e used chief executive hailed a new honesty in the relationship and spoke of her pride in the so named winds of framework. updating the original northern ireland protocol that governs post briggs in trade between the u. k. and the e u. this new frame at will allow us to begin a new chapter. it provides for long lasting solutions that both of us a confident will work for all people and businesses in northern ireland. the deal provides for smooth the trade between the u. k. mainland and northern ireland eliminating most checks on basic food stuffs, plants and medicines. it said to safeguard the good friday peace agreement while

upholding the sovereignty of northern ireland. allowing its devolved assembly a veto of a future rules decided by brussels. a so called storm on to break, but no deal can overcome the fundamental briggs. it contradiction that northern ireland remains in both the u. k and the e use single market for goods. and so the role of a u law, though diminished won't disappear entirely. that deal breaker for northern ireland democratic unionists and the hong kong pro briggs, who empties in the conservative party, both of whom the prime minister appealed to when he address a politic lay thought that he does what many fed could not be done. removing thousands of pages of a law and making permanent legally binding changes to the protocol treaty itself. the prime minister has confirmed that the vote will take place inside the house of commons before this new deal can become

a law. there's no chance of losing it. he's already been promised the support of the opposition labor party. what mister sooner will hope to avoid, however, is for yet another new divide to form inside the conservative party of the breaks, it breaks it was supposed to be done at the end of 20. 20 intrusive was never going to be done until the problem of northern ireland was the u. k. and you leaders are hoping it finally has variable jonah, how al jazeera lumber leaving the european union been to trade board. it was needed between the u. k. and the blog, but that couldn't happen between northern ireland and the republic of violet because of the peace agreement that ended years of violence. so the border was pushed between northern ireland and the rest of the united kingdom. which angered unionists under the winds of framework where she soon access there will be a smooth flow of trade within the u. k. with good separated into a green lane for goods traveling to northern ireland and a red lane for goods moving into the e u. he says it will remove any sense of

a series of essentially compromises and no one in politics likes compromise. and i think that's why it's become so difficult to create a deal that, that works for, for the country and, and for the european union to but hopefully with which is you next appointment. maybe they saw the european you european union saw in him someone who they could do business with someone who was perhaps more pragmatic than his predecessor bars. johnson and that's led to this breakthrough, which i think is, is welcome. ah, in australia has died near the city of jericho, the occupied west bank after being shot in a car. the latest shooting follow the deployment by israel, of hundreds of additional soldiers to the area after an escalation of violence on sunday. to israeli settlers was shot dead to the city of nablus. one palestinian was killed and hundreds were injured. were us national security council spokesman john kirby says the united states condemns the violence on both sides. yesterday's
