Ireland not playing chicken, Varadkar warns May ahead of sideline talks

Taoiseach Leo Varadkar says Ireland is “not playing chicken” over Brexit after British prime minister Theresa May delayed a House of Commons vote on a deal until just days before March 29 deadline.

Ahead of the first summit between the EU and the Arab League in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt, Ms May confirmed a “meaningful” vote planned for Wednesday will now be delayed until as late as March 12.
