Ireland will not stand in way if UK requests Article 50 extension – Coveney
Ireland will not stand in the way of Britain extending the Brexit March divorce date amid growing indications that Downing Street is considering pushing out the deadline, Tánaiste Simon Coveney has confirmed.
Mr Coveney said this country will not be opposed to any article 50 extension if it helps to ensure a Brexit with less than a week to go before next Tuesday's Westminster vote on the existing deal.
