Brexit chief extends olive branch in effort to bring UK back to negotiating table in long-running dispute
The EU has offered to reduce checks on goods crossing the Irish Sea into Northern Ireland to a “couple of lorries a day” in an effort to bring the UK back to the negotiating table in the Brexit dispute.
The European Union’s Brexit chief, Maroš Šefčovič, said physical checks would be made only “when there is a reasonable suspicion of illegal trade smuggling, illegal drugs, dangerous toys or poisoned food”.
