A deal with the European Union over trade barriers in Northern Ireland could be struck in the coming days, deputy Prime Minister Dominic Raab has said.

¡°Hopefully there¡¯ll be good news in a matter of days, not weeks.¡± Raab said in an interview with Sky News¡¯ Sophy Ridge on Sunday. ¡°We are not there yet. But we are obviously in a position where we are on the cusp of a deal.¡±

Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has said he¡¯s determined to get a deal done, but wouldn¡¯t sign on to a plan that doesn¡¯t resolve lingering problems from the original Brexit deal.
