''Joe Biden supports EU position on Northern Ireland, says Von der Leyen
Brussels chief says US president agrees Britain should not ditch post-Brexit protocol''
''Ursula von der Leyen has claimed that the EU’s position on Northern Ireland has the support of the US president, as Brussels prepares a “ladder” of retaliatory options up to and including the suspension of the UK trade deal over Boris Johnson’s threats to ditch the current post-Brexit arrangements.
After a meeting at the White House, the European Commission president said Joe Biden was in agreement with the bloc that Johnson should not upend the tortuously negotiated Northern Ireland protocol''
A decision needs to be made, this has gone on too long and the Good Friday Agreement should be protected at all costs. If the GFA is broken, I would suggest that it is the end of johnson and his government, it's that serious.

Added, what I forgot of course is that johnson will turn it into the johnson verses the world in a WWE spectacular and voters will buy it.
