Move follows claim Boris Johnson broke international law for second time over Northern Ireland
The European parliament has postponed setting a date for ratifying the trade and security deal with Britain after Boris Johnson was accused of breaking international law for a second time over Northern Ireland.
The chamber’s political groups agreed on Thursday to wait, in light of the latest row with Downing Street, with some senior MEPs warning that the Christmas Eve deal will not be passed at all if the UK goes ahead with its plans.
