Enda Kenny annoyed at pace of Brexit talks

Taoiseach Enda Kenny has bemoaned the lack of clarity from Britain on its post-Brexit relationship with the European Union.

Speaking in Brussels at the conclusion of the final summit before British prime minister Theresa May triggers the formal legal exit from the EU, Mr Kenny displayed some impatience at the lack of progress.

The Taoiseach indicated his annoyance at London’s continuing vagueness about what exactly its relationship will be with the EU, in particular its attitude to membership or otherwise of the EU customs union.
