The strength of opposition to the Northern Ireland Protocol is regularly downplayed and at times simply ignored.
The Orange Institution aims to facilitate a clear statement from Unionism which reiterates their resolute opposition to the Northern Ireland Protocol.
​
It is also designed to offer clear support to the Unionist leaders who issued their joint declaration against the NI Protocol on Ulster Day, 28th September 2021.
​
There are three core reasons why people should be opposed to the Protocol:
-
It makes Northern Ireland a place apart within the United Kingdom – we are not treated as equal citizens of the UK.
-
It will leave Northern Ireland citizens subject to laws made by Europe, and therefore subject to European Courts. This clearly undermines the Sovereignty of the United Kingdom.
-
It is delivering an all-Ireland economy. Trade with the Republic of Ireland has grown significantly due to the ever-increasing difficulties of sourcing goods from the United Kingdom.
​
We want to show the Prime Minister Boris Johnson and the European leaders that the overwhelmingly majority of Unionists are opposed to the Northern Ireland Protocol.
