LONDON (Reuters) - There is a growing expectation that Britain will trigger Article 16, a clause which allows for unilateral action if the Northern Irish Protocol, governing post-Brexit trade with the EU, is deemed to be having a negative impact, RTE reported on Friday.
"Article 16 update: growing expectation that the UK will trigger. Much more intense discussion in the European Commission about how the EU shd respond," RTE Europe Editor Tony Connelly wrote on Twitter.
