SDLP Leader Colum Eastwood has travelled to Brussels to meet with leaders of the SDLP’s sister parties from across Europe to once again make the case for the North’s interests to be protected in the Brexit negotiations.
The Foyle MLA said: “At this crucial time in the negotiations it is important that we use our influence with our friends from across Europe continue to press the case for the North to be protected.
“I have constantly reminded our sister parties of the need for our citizens and the Good Friday Agreement to be protected.
“Today I have made it clear again that any threat to the all-weather backstop, as agreed last December, would be unacceptable and a socio-economic disaster for the North.”
