"International Law" Thats a very strong sounding phrase being thrown around. In fact it really means rugger all. It was an agreement between Europe and the UK, it has no legal standing in the rest of the world only in the EU court, that court being one of the things we are refusing to be part of going forwards, one that will have no legal standing or primacy over parliament in the UK if we bounce out with no agreement, makes it inevitable that the agreement, and its "legal breech" is of no consequence. The EU can huff and puff, but they cant impose trading sanctions without severely impinging on their own finances, crippled by covid support finances to boot.
japan does not seem care, we have just signed an agreement with them. In short its a big stick being wielded. An assault charge wont mean much if its used.
I think the best thing to do is if we seeded NI to Europe, and let them deal with it. Its of no use to us, in fact its a PITA.
