A reality check - Coveney on Brexit negotiations

Tánaiste Simon Coveney’s assertion yesterday that a House of Commons a law precluding another extension of Brexit negotiations will not force the EU to rush into a deal was a badly-needed, rational and welcome reality check — especially as he would not have made such a clear statement unless he knew this view was shared in Brussels.

Whether or not it is seen as such by the “Get Brexit Done” Conservatives is another matter entirely.
