Ireland reliant on Britain to come up with solution to avoid hard border, Varadkar tells Dáil

Ireland is now completely reliant on Britain to come up with a solution to avoid a hard border, the Taoiseach has told the Dáil.

While Leo Varadkar has confirmed that the Government's proposals in the event of a hard Brexit are "no-longer contingency plans" and are now being implemented, he maintained that this does not involve checks along the Irish border.
