schema:articleBody	Police in Northern Ireland said Wednesday they were noticing "growing discontent", expressed via graffiti and social media, among the province's unionists over its post-Brexit divergence with mainland Britain. Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) Assistant Chief Constable Mark McEwan told UK lawmakers that the coronavirus pandemic had so far helped in "moderating people's behaviour in terms of the desire to protest". "Were we not in this current environment, we would probably see a more visible outworking of that on the streets," he said. Unionists, who want Northern Ireland to remain part of Britain, are angry over the new customs checks required on goods travelling across the Irish Sea, complaining there is now a border between the province and the rest of the UK. Discontent in the "Protestant, unionist, loyalist community" is being expressed in graffiti and on social media, McEwan told the Northern Ireland Affairs Committee. The new checks came into effect as a result of the Brexit deal struck between Britain and the European Union in December, taking effect on New Year's Day. Northern Ireland is still in the EU's single market for goods, enabling it to keep a soft border with the Republic of Ireland. However, the rest of the Britain has left the single market so checks are now needed when shuttling goods across the Irish Sea. Decades of violence between loyalists and republicans, who want Northern Ireland to be part of the Republic of Ireland, ended in 1998 with the signing of the Good Friday Agreement. Some Northern Ireland politicians have warned that the new arrangements forced by Brexit could shatter the delicate peace that has held for over two decades. jwp/jj/spm
