Poll: Are you worried about Brexit?
PRESIDENT OF THE European Commission Jean-Claude Juncker is to hold a meeting about Brexit with Taoiseach Leo Varadkar at Government Buildings in Dublin today.
Speaking ahead of the visit, Varadkar said: “We need to see much more progress from the UK to implement the commitments they made in December and March, and I expect the UK’s efforts to intensify in the period ahead.”
One major issue is, of course, what will happen to the border between the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland post-Brexit. Other sticking points include trade and migration.
As the deadline for Britain leaving the European Union moves closer, we want to know: Are you worried about Brexit?
