The existence of a new EU €5bn Brexit fund will be very important for Ireland especially if the EU fails to broker a trade deal with the UK. That’s according to the Fine Gael MEP Mairead McGuinness.

Mairead McGuinness says the fund will be particularly important for the Irish food and agricultural sectors if the UK crashes out of the transition period without a trade deal.
