Cabinet to agree Brexit package worth 'hundreds of millions of euros', Taoiseach confirms

Cabinet will next week agree a special Brexit package for hundreds of millions of euros to protect incomes, jobs, and exports, Taoiseach Leo Varadkar has confirmed, writes Juno McEnroe in Chicago.

Speaking in Chicago on the second leg of his St Patrick's Day US trip, Mr Varadkar said he hoped British MPs next week would still vote to agree to the Brexit deal. If they did not, Ireland was prepared for a no deal, he insisted.
