Boris Johnson is set to make an emergency visit to Northern Ireland, as the crisis over the protocol deepened with the unionist DUP blocking the election of a speaker at Stormont.

Sinn Fein first minister designate Michelle O’Neill said that she was expecting the prime minister in Northern Ireland on Monday, when she will tell him to “stop pandering to the DUP”, which is refusing to join a power-sharing executive while the protocol is in place.

That should sort it

His very own 'protocol crisis' 😂 ToryLiars

What the fak..good will that do...the bastad will make it WORSE..

How to make a bad crisis worse...

How many times have we seen the ...'pm' 'crisis' headline in the last two years. Without the mentioning that each crisis is of Boris Johnsons own making JohnsonOut109 NorthernIrelandProtocol

Just sightseeing, beware of him opening his mouth, white man speak with forked tongue - always!

PM seen flapping his arms to achieve takeoff

Can't imagine it will solve anything.

Ireland will reunite. Scotland will leave the UK. Thanks, Brexit. Good work. Simply awesome. The NHS is loving the extra £350 million a week, too.

He started the crisis so he can finish it? Will the Queen celebrate her Platinum Jubilee still looking after the United Kingdom?

The one he willingly signed and touted as oven ready?

Or: ‘Man responsible for Protocolcrisis, visits Northern Ireland for publicity’

Is this the Protocol which Johnson said was oven ready?

Hope they have some fridges handy

Wow, what could possibly go wrong?!

Like anyone in Stormont is going to listen to Porker Johnson. No-one could trust a word he said anyway 😡

Has ulster not suffered enough?

Pretty sure he will reconfirm that there will be no border in the Irish see and definitely no customer checks/over his dead body etc....

Such an emergency it can wait until after the weekend

To make a shitshow even worse?

Oh shit no!

Ah, that should solve all of their problems. Kermit, Peppa Pig, and a few good old Greek says and we'll have πόλεμος

The ERG are making the crisis! They are in full on panic mode now they’ve been caught out lying about the protocol to “get Brexit done” and there is a real prospect of Irish reunification due to Brexit.

Because that’s going to help. Also how is it a crisis?

Where and when? I’m sure we’d all love to show him how we feel. 😈

What “protocol crisis”? It seems to be working well from what I hear and read.

Will there be cheese?

Taking his toy plane with him 🤣

Yeah and Johnson will solve the problem he created?

How to make things worse!

PM to 'cause emergency in visit to NI' there, fixed it!

😀😀😀He is a fanny.

That should sort it! 😂

Oven ready wasn't it?

Well, that’ll sort things out.

The wheels really are coming off aren't they? Conservatives are approaching crisis point and the people of Britain deserve better. We want a General Election NOW. NeverVoteConservative ToriesUnfitToGovern ToriesPartiedWhilePeopleDied ToriesOut

Be getting pissed and telling lies again 🙄 ToryLiars

They’ll be thrilled

That’ll soon sort things out.

PM 'to make emergency visit to Northern Ireland to ensure crisis deepens' surely?

Will he make it back?

Like that's gonna help 🤦

That'll help. 🫤 Everything he said last time turned out to be lies.

Sinn Fein will give him a few home truths.

Maybe he thinks its better to pay with cash.

Dressed as a Leprechaun no doubt. Wouldn't want to offend them or anything.

He’ll do a quick visit, make the same useless promises & leave them to it.

Can he not stay away? This is a photo op. And does he not know there is a war on?

God help them!

Jesus, does he have to?

Oh, that’ll sort things out then. Who says there’ll be a diplomatic disaster before the end of the visit? And I hope someone with a massive tannoy plays the liar’s speeches he made whilst he’s there…

Oh that’ll help 🤯

This should read……PM about to make matters far worse as he decides to visit Northern Ireland BorisJohnson is a liability

Cause that will help...

Check his pockets at the North Sea border, he'll be dressed as a leprechaun.

That'll sort it.

Poor Northern Ireland. Do they want to keep him?

he wants to make things worse

Hope he gets a wholesome welcome

Fear matters might be made worse by this anyone?

Let me correct the headline for you: PM to make emergency visit to Northern Ireland, to solve a problem be created in the first place.

That’s really going to help

Will he get pissed and tell lies again as previously?

That'll do it. Poor Northern Ireland, they've had enough troubles

Oh yea👏👏that’ll sort it!!🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

That'll help....

Omg. What can possibly go wrong?

You mean the crisis he delivered as oven ready?

Let me guess... he's going to take 'personal responsibility' for the NI protocol. We should all be reassured. JohnsonOut

jacquep Will the rest of the world cope while he takes time out to sort his own mess out. (This is just theatre for Johnson).

Oh my, how to create a United Ireland... EveryCloud

jacquep The 'crisis' is the Tories own making.

That'll work

Oh good grief no. The situation's bad enough already.

Haha..as if he's gonnae make things better! The man is a buffoon

Probably just wants some duty free for another party

That’ll sort it

Could you start referring to it as a Brexit crisis please? That’s what it really is. Reducing it to a protocol plays into Boris’ hands.

Is he going back to tell them there will be no checks and add more fuel to the fire LIAR

That'll help. Not

That’ll sort it out hey…🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🥳🤡

Oh that'll help matters when that utter charlatan rolls into town.

That’ll help.

Pm last seen asking for directions to the road bridge to Ireland!

😂 publicity stunt.wait for the slogan.

This can only go well. He's getting everything else done 👍

That'll help! 😳

He'll be taking 'personal responsibility' for it soon. That bodes well, doesn't it? 🙄

Good man Bojo 🤡 you're coming over to Northern Ireland again to finish your job of screwing over the DUP. They'll never learn to catch themselves on and stop believing the utter bollicks that you tell them. They'll believe any auld Sh!te you tell them 🤣🤣🤣

That probably means that WWIII will start there instead of Ukraine StandWithUkraine️

This is what the Tories want. They want the NI protocol and GFA to fail.

So ... He wants to prove Star Trek right?

Just tell him to drop down to Leinster House, post the keys in the letterbox and walk away.

Let’s hope for the odd protest

Not sure that'll help.

That gonna help NOT

That’ll go down well 😳

Northern Ireland doesn’t want you, just as Scotland doesn’t 💯

Good Lord no. Nothing good will come of this

That will go well then 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Yes, please!

As if that will help 🤦‍♂️

ooh, that will really help, can't wait.

Can someone find an adult to stop him.

Haven’t we put them through enough?

PM To Make Things Worse. There, fixed it for you.

As Sergeant Wilson from Dad's Army used to say: 'Do you think that is wise sir?'

If the situation wasn’t fked before it will be after Monday.

Only because the yanks are in town

That’s another £1bn of taxpayers money gone down the swanny to bribe a dwindling DUP, all to explain his oven ready deal was actually just raw

Well things wil get a whole lot worse when he gets there won’t it

That will solve what?

Will he bring a bin?

It's not a 'protocol crisis'. It's a 'Noethern Irish governance crisis'

Hasn't he caused enough trouble...

Guess that’s the Union screwed, oh well….

Because that will make things better. They need to play back the video of him stating categorically there’d be no checks on goods between GB and NI. He was a liar then and is a liar now so don’t believe a word he says.

Sure fire way to f things up

He’ll promise and promise and fly home and forget all about it …

That'll sort it😜

I wouldn't let him off the plane if I were them.

Democracy in NI is also suffering from the lack of decency from the Tory current government. I think it's time to Reunification!

That's that fucked then 😂 😂 😂 😂.

This is Boris coming to save the day

I doubt if many will listen to his lies and false promises!

Who is the lying charlatan going to speak with this time round ? Still the DUP & their LCC mates ?

Yay, problem solved

Hasn’t NI suffered enough?

I am sure that will be exciting for them

Is he taking his own fridge?

So Ireland will be united in a week.

Yeah, and Johnson’s visit would solve the problem.

Watch out Belfast, its coming to you

Given his record over his 'oven ready deal', perhaps better he is kept well away from anything to do with the protocol. Or anything at all, really.

to fix a problem that doesn't exist!

Well that’s a boost for the reunification of Ireland

Oh ok. It’s all good everyone. Boris is on it.

Emergency visit to deepen crisis more like.

INCOMING!!!

Like announcing a foreign trip.

That's going to be the end of everything, then.

Well that's sorted then, back in time for the FA cup 🤣

Will he tell them it’s oven ready

The PM has a habit of making a bad situation worse. It would be better cancelling Mr Turd's trip.

Oh no!

I see breaking news, then PM, excitement mounts…. Sadly dashed. He’s not resigned& is still alive. It’s the hope that kills you.

Hope he brings Dorris

What does it hope to achieve.

God help them, then!!

Sorry Northern Ireland… you’re screwed 😬

Is bringing dizzy lizzy too ?😂 or Pritler?

Many people go on about Art 16 of the NIP, but I wonder why no one ever mentions Art 18. The mechanism for Democratic Consent. This is determined by the NI Assembly and then by cross-community support subsequently. Surely this is how the NIP is validated - no

Where I'm sure he will be welcomed

Haven't the people of Northern Ireland already suffered enough?

The problem is visiting the ailment...how?!?!

Phew, that'll sort it.🤔

How tempted were you to write 'PM 'to make emergency visit to Northern Ireland' to deepen the protocol crisis'?

This sounds like a disaster

That'll help. NOT

He created the 'crisis'

Well. On the same day he was told about the value and impact of his interventions by Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe…

Don't underestimate that man's ability to unite and group of people, against him.

Border Poll announced by next Friday.

To do what?

That’s it screwed then

Ok to make it so much worse - Bunter to sort it out🤣🤣🤣

Just what they need. A few more lies and a sound-bite. Just the man for the job. Maybe they could throw a welcome party. He likes parties.

Cheque book in hand to buy off the DUP or the date for a border poll

Only way he could make it worse!

Here he comes.....

A crisis entirely of his own making

That should help

well that should make it worse

That should do it.

Quick how can we make it worse…..

Oh no keep him away...he will only foul things up further!

He’s heard there’s a party 🎉

Doomed then

Is the tunnel back on then ?

To meet the SAME loyalist Paramilitary groups that Brandon Lewis and Liz Truss met.

Surely there is no protocol issue if the majority of people in NI want it?

Question . If the UK decided to let Nothern Ireland leave the UK. Would this weaken the UK or not? Would it benefit both or not ? 🤔

F*ck me that's all they need.

Just to make sure he properly fucks it up

Will he: throw taxpayers' money at the situation lie and gaslight waffle in generalities have a boozy party? That’s all he’s got.

Blame the English

Don't send trussliz we'll end up with a war.

LOL and do what? Lie to them all again? Hopefully he gets the welcome he deserves.

That’ll make it worse.

You gotta be shitting me 😳

OMG They are going to get all the help they don't really want.

That’s a relief

A Boris visit? That should really fuck things up b

Bet there bricking it that numpty turning up.

Hope they have scouted out some decent fridges!

Is this to help or to hinder? Answers on a postcard

Game playing by Boris. Big serious head on him after talks. Statement will then issue that for the good of NI (laughable given his history!!)“reluctantly” they’re pulling the protocol because they’ve no choice (maybe stop refusing to negotiate!!)

United Ireland edges even closer

How’s that going to help? He’s the bloody problem!

Quick send the arsonist back to the fire that will help 🙄

well that's reunification a guarantee now

Oh, sure that'll help! We'll have hard Brexit by Monday Then we'll see if Project Fear was just words (it won't be - it's already happening, just not being reported b/c 'thou shalt not take the name of Brexit in vain'

What could possibly go wrong 😑

He found it on the map...wow 💥

Just when you think he couldn't make anything worse...

...HIS protocol crisis
