Juncker: No-deal Brexit would mean border checks

European Commission president Jean-Claude Juncker said the UK would be responsible for the consequences of Brexit.

European Commission president Jean-Claude Juncker has confirmed there will be border checks between the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland if there is a no deal Brexit.

Mr Juncker issued the warning during a Sunday morning interview with Sky News' Sophy Ridge programme, accusing British MPs of "forgetting" Ireland's history while saying the EU must protect its borders.
