Taoiseach: Unionists must be part of ‘new Good Friday’

A proposed citizen’s assembly to consider a United Ireland will need the involvement of unionists, Taoiseach Leo Varadkar has said.

A group called Ireland’s Future recently published a letter signed by 1,000 prominent people seeking an assembly to discuss the possibility of a united Ireland. However, Mr Varadkar said that only when power-sharing arrangements are back up and running in the north would be it be right to examine any changes.
