The Government held a late night Cabinet meeting and the hope is now that the agreement would get a majority backing in Westminster.
As Cabinet ministers were updated on the final text of the assurances offered to Britain there was one a clear message, which was that nothing has been agreed which undermines the backstop. It followed a night of high drama on Merrion Street as a Cabinet meeting was called at short notice, which would later adjourn for a period when the Taoiseach spoke by phone to the European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker.Speaking as he left Government Buildings, Minister for Transport Shane Ross said he and his colleagues are hopeful that the Withdrawal Agreement can now be passed in Westminster.
The series of documents, which are separate to the agreed withdrawal deal, are designed to provide added assurances to the UK that it will not be tied to the Irish border backstop indefinitely.
........he’s got to be very, very careful if the DUP see as much as a smile cross his lips, then the deal’s off
