Mairead McGuinness, an Irish centre-Right MEP, is the candidate to be the EU’s financial services commissioner. If approved by the European Parliament, which is expected, she will be the City’s gatekeeper to the Single Market. The Fine Gael politician and former member of the parliament’s Brexit Steering Group, told MEPs at a hearing into her candidacy that Brussels needed answers from the UK. Short memories eh? Ms Mairead McGuinness might recall that the UK lent Ireland some 3.25 billion quid when their economy crashed in 2010. British banks also propped up Ulsterbank, the countries third biggest, to the tune of some 10 billion or so. If Ulsterbank had gone under then it would have been a mortal blow to an already badly injured economy. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aubrey Allegretti Political reporter @breeallegretti Friday 2 October 2020 15:50, UK https://news.sky.com/story/brexit-pm-to-hold-talks-with-eu-boss-after-legal-action-launched-12087510 Breaking Aubrey Allegretti Political reporter @breeallegretti Friday 2 October 2020 15:50, UK Big differences remain in post-Brexit trade talks with the UK, Brussels' chief negotiator has said. As the deadline for cutting an agreement looms, Michel Barnier welcomed some "positive new developments" following this week's negotiations in London. But he warned there had been a "lack of progress" on issues like climate change commitments and "persistent, serious divergences on matters of major importance for the EU". "We will continue to maintain a calm and respectful attitude, and we will remain united and determined until the end of these negotiations," Mr Barnier added in a statement released on Friday.
