On the issue hanging over Ireland and the rest of the EU, ICMSA president John Comer said that the negotiations on Brexit to date have been nothing short of chaotic.
“People are playing politics and the reality is that it will be us – the farmers – who will be hit first and hardest unless the political mess is sorted out quickly,” Comer said.
“Despite all the robust talk from the EU regarding protecting Ireland’s interest, in my darker moments I fear that we could very easily be sacrificed for wider political reasons at EU level.”
