I’ve written in @NewStatesman that the Govt has been telling MPs that the First Treasury Counsel has signed off on the legality of the NIP legislation. @davidallengreen has some very interesting observations on this point. — PolitiTweet.org

@jadw59 @NewStatesman Many thanks for this, I hadn't seen that. As I mentioned, I was surprised by the German numbers so this helps explain. — PolitiTweet.org

@davidallengreen Don't think they'd have shown the Eadie advice to backbenchers (which would've raised lots of questions). More "don't worry, Eadie's looked at it" (which is the truth but not the whole truth). — PolitiTweet.org

David Gauke @DavidGauke

Very good piece from @davidallengreen on the Govt's curious approach to the advice of Sir James Eadie QC on the Northern Ireland Protocol legislation. One point to add is that the Govt has been telling MPs that Eadie had signed off the Bill (see https://t.co/EdAJXANdQN). — PolitiTweet.org

@t0nyyates @NewStatesman Very kind, Tony. — PolitiTweet.org

Me for @NewStatesman on the prospect of rows over Europe, some Tory MPs trying to resist recklessness while Johnson appeals to the Right & deploys exceptional measures against opponents. It could soon start to feel like the Brexit wars again. https://t.co/QljF4ltKoK — PolitiTweet.org

Following Monday’s vote, the rebels won’t give up & Johnson is unlikely to be emollient. It’ll be a fractious time & the flashpoint could be Europe. Me for @NewStatesman, including on the curious case of the sidelining of the First Treasury Counsel. https://t.co/QljF4ltKoK — PolitiTweet.org

Eadie was asked not opine on international law. The report was correct, the Prime Minister not. — PolitiTweet.org

David Gauke @DavidGauke

The specific point made by @SamCoatesSky is that the First Treasury Counsel was not asked to give an opinion on the Bill’s compliance with international law. The PM appeared to deny this. Was the FTC asked to opine on international law, or not? — PolitiTweet.org
