Meeting comes as officials conducting checks on goods from Britain are withdrawn from duties amid safety concerns
The Cabinet Office minister, Michael Gove, Northern Ireland’s first minister, Arlene Foster, the deputy first minister, Michelle O’Neill, and the European commission vice-president Maroš Šefčovič will meet on Wednesday to discuss escalating tensions over Brexit in Northern Ireland.
The meeting comes after all Northern Irish and EU officials were withdrawn from duties conducting physical checks on goods from Great Britain amid concerns over their safety after reports of “menacing behaviour”.
