Comments by Irish prime minister Leo Varadkar
- Expects the UK to stand by agreements
- UK splits have made it hard to get a deal done
- Says that we have to work through UK divisions
It was initially September, then October, then November, and now 'by the end of the year'. Can kicking at its finest. Word on the street is that if there isn't any significant progress made this week, the EU will not call for a special Brexit summit this month.
Everything now rests on May and what she will present to parliament tomorrow. Let's see if we can get some semblance of a deal or agreement to come by Friday. I won't hold my breath on it though.
