Leo Varadkar, Ireland’s deputy prime minister, said on Sunday to RTE radio that he believes that Britain and the European Union are likely to secure a free-trade deal in the coming weeks.
“It’s by no means guaranteed but I think on the balance of probabilities it will be possible to agree a free-trade agreement with the UK which means there will be no quotas and no tariffs.”
Market implications
