'While political opposition will undoubtedly continue, unionist parties must now accept the protocol is lawful,' writes brendanhughes64
The Supreme Court unanimously dismissed a legal challenge backed by unionists and Brexiteers against the Northern Ireland Protocol, but that didn't stop them spinning it as a win.
After the resounding legal defeat on Wednesday, Sir Jeffrey acknowledged a "solution" to the protocol "was never going to be found in the courts". His department's failed attempt to defend the judicial review challenging his instruction racked up a legal bill of more than £57,000 - and more costs have still to be added.

Distinctive Neuroanatomic Regions Involved in Cocaine-Induced Behavioral Sensitization in MiceThe present study aimed to characterize the phenomenon of behavioral sensitization to cocaine and to identify neuroanatomical structures involved in the induction and expression phases of this phenomenon. For this, in experiment 1 (induction phase), mice were treated with saline or cocaine every second day for 15 days (conditioning period), in the open-field or in their home-cages. In experiment 2 (expression phase), the same protocol was followed, except that after the conditioning period the animals were not manipulated for 10 days, and after this interval, animals were challenged with cocaine. Neuroanatomical structures involved in the induction and expression phases were identified by stereological quantification of c-Fos staining in the dorsomedial prefrontal cortex (dmPFC), nucleus accumbens core (NAc core and shell (NAc shell), basolateral amygdala (BLA), and ventral tegmental area (VTA). Neuroanatomical analysis indicated that in the induction phase, cocaine-conditioned animals had higher expression of c-Fos in the dmPFC, NAc core, BLA, and VTA, whereas in the expression phase, almost all areas had higher expression except for the VTA. Therefore, environmental context plays a major role in the induction and expression of behavioral sensitization, although not all structures that compose the mesolimbic system contribute to this phenomenon.
