The Irish Times reports on the concerns of business leaders in Northern Ireland with what they perceive as an absence of strong representation in Brexit talks from elected officials and a lack of clarity from the British government on its future trading relationship with the EU.
George Fleming, co-founder of Fleming Agri-Products who voted remain in the 2016 referendum, feels the interests of Northern Ireland are not being pushed to the forefront; “…there’s nobody actually presenting a united front on what’s best for Northern Ireland.” Ciga Healthcare CEO and leave voter Irwin Armstrong criticizes the sluggish progress of Theresa May’s government; “We wasted a year and a half on fiddling around, and that’s not how you do business.” The report captures the feeling of frustration felt by business interests from across the Brexit divide.
