This is an interesting formulation by @DavidGHFrost. Because it leaves open a U.K. commitment to an anti-subsidy that is different “to the way the EU do things” and does not “give [the EU] control over ... the way we organise things here in the U.K.”

NB too that since Article 10 of the NI Protocol (already signed up to by the current govt) *really does* give the EU control over the way we do things, this is an argument for trying to get the EU to accept that our own independent regime is good enough for A10 to be dropped.

In short, what Frost says here is entirely consistent with what @michaelgove said on 11 March. (and, now I look at it again, nothing in Frost’s earlier tweet actually ruled that out either). https://twitter.com/georgeperetzqc/status/1301931474644590592">https://twitter.com/georgeper...
