A letter from Theresa May has led DUP leaders to fear she will renege on a promise to prevent any division between Northern Ireland and the rest of the UK
A Brussels plan to put a customs border in the Irish Sea if there is no Brexit agreement will be included in a divorce deal, a leaked letter from Theresa May suggests.
The prime minister was accused last night of breaking her promise to the Democratic Unionist Party that she would never sign up to a deal that could allow Northern Ireland to be divided from the rest of the United Kingdom.
Post-Brexit shipping routes would mean spoiled Irish foodI tried unsuccessfuly to find a similar graphic for the RoI but my phone is less than ideal for searching. I did however find the tidbit that in case if a no deal Brexit the two most popular shipping routes would add 20 to 38 hours if they had to sail around Britain instead of traveling across the island. A portion of the traffic on the diagram is crossing the UK. The EU trade at Holyhead appears to be primarily to and from Dublin.
ETA: More here: Jo Johnson quits as minister over Theresa May's Brexit planTransport minister Jo Johnson has quit the government, calling for the public to have a fresh say on Brexit.

It was "imperative" to "go back to the people and check they are content to proceed on this extraordinary basis".
He voted to remain in the EU while his brother was a leading Brexiteer.
