Brexit: London calling for Tánaiste amid warning from DUP

Tánaiste Simon Coveney will meet British government ministers in London tomorrow to assess the latest efforts by London to resolve disagreement over Brexit and ahead of expected fresh proposals.

Downing Street is preparing to produce a third Brexit customs model that prime minister Theresa May may put to her cabinet later this week, it has been suggested.

This could be flagged at a meeting with cabinet ministers at her country residence at Chequers this week and is expected to recommend a Norway-style option, leaving Britain subject to some EU rules.
