Hard Brexit would be 'unmitigated disaster' for Irish fishing industry

The CEO of the Killybegs Fishermen’s Organisation has warned that if there is no trade deal between the UK and the EU by the end of 2020 then there will be a hard Brexit which will be “an unmitigated disaster” for the Irish fishing industry.

Sean O’Donoghue told RTÉ radio’s Morning Ireland that it was “an unrealistic timescale” to expect a trade deal by the end of 2020.
