'There had been rioting in Northern Ireland over the Brexit deal, and specifically the Northern Ireland protocol, that had included the hijacking and burning of a bus. Brandon Lewis, the Northern Ireland secretary, had conceded the deal had angered many unionists, and the events gave me the opportunity to draw Johnson in another light - this time fleeing his Brexit bus.' Peter Brookes
