Brexit: Farage fuming about Windsor framework & it's embarrassing

European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen met with Rishi Sunak to sign a post Brexit deal before joining King Charles at Windsor Castle.

The agreement is expected to resolve the long-running row over the Northern Ireland Protocol – with or without the support of the DUP and Tory hardline brexiter.

It seems the DUP haven’t made their mind up on it yet.

Anonymous sources strike again. We’ll take our time to consider the detail and measure a deal against our seven tests. PS – A busy day and no dinner planned either – story entirely fictional. Let’s stick to the facts @irish_news pic.twitter.com/vwSgyVBYGp

Boris Johnson for one….

Wow. Rishi Sunak might have just ended Boris Johnson's political career.

King

Jacob Rees-Mogg said the meeting with the King risked “dragging” the monarchy into a political announcement.

But it was electoral failure Nigel Farage who seemed the angriest.

Here he is…

Then he moaned on about it with no other than Arlene Foster.

'There was no need to involve His Majesty The King!'

Dame Arlene Foster tells @Nigel_Farage that she thinks it's 'wrong' that King Charles III is involved in the Northern Ireland Protocol deal, and says the Monarchy 'should be above politics'. pic.twitter.com/EgIXz7Noir

Reactions

Brexit has failed Nige. You said you’d leave Britain if this happened so why are you still here? Britain has had enough of pied pipers!

It is absolutely disgusting that an unelected nobody dares to think that they should have say over what the King can and cannot do.
Over inflated ego – or a very sore loser on the Brexit front
What a win for NI access to the single market – why didn't rest of UK think of that..

You were doing a victory lap when Johnson lied to the Queen were you not? https://t.co/0YRqmx0x0O

Good old Fagolf Shitler. Laud the state visit of a hard Brexit toting fascist, cry at der Leyen having a cuppa with the king after signing a deal with the UK government. pic.twitter.com/nNl7sXMUKD

Something tragically correct about using that tattered and seen-better-days Union Jack to block out the light. https://t.co/1QhmXt6i79

The Queen wined & dined Donald Trump for overtly political Brexit reasons re a US Trade deal. You didn’t complain then Farage? British Monarchy is ALWAYS involved in overtly political matters – Windsor Framework re NI Protocol is no different

I find it hard to believe that you’re still here, given your pledge to live abroad if Brexit is a disaster

Or indeed this?

I don’t know anything about the Windsor Framework or what was agreed yesterday. But I do know that if it’s pissed off Farage, it’s probably a positive. https://t.co/BciXrsYp9d
