Brexit Flashcards
What does the Brexit Deal do concerning EU law?
We will be out of the jurisdiction of the ECJ, able to make our own laws in areas where we are currently bound by EU rules. British courts shall once again be the highest authority in the land.
Can we strike our own trade deals under the deal?
Yes
What will we be able to do in regards to taxation under the new Brexit deal?
Control our own taxes, change VAT rules and other tax laws
What’s the situation with NI?
NI will forever be in a UK customs territory, and benefit from the free trade deals we strike. The backstop has been removed. The Good Friday Agreement is respected. There are no checks at the border. To ensure the integrity of the single market there is an all-island regulatory zone in Ireland. This zone depends on the democratic consent of the people in NI. The people of NI will be in charge of the laws they live by and will have the right to end the special arrangement if they so choose via the Assembly and Executive.
