Brexit Inches Nearer / Camps in Paris, Protests at "The Jungle‪"‬ The Irish Times World View Podcast

    • News

On the podcast this week: The minister with responsibility for Brexit, David Davis, yesterday gave a speech to the House of Commons on what progress is being made. Are we any clearer as a result? Not very much, says London Editor Denis Staunton, but there were some takeaways from the lengthy address.

Denis also explains why Prime Minister Theresa May has ruffled some feathers among Leave campaigners, and how Japanese firms with UK bases have made their feelings about what should happen next very clear.

Also on the show, Lara Marlowe reports from Paris where the mayor Anne Hidalgo has announced plans to set up two new camps for migrants, the first ever camps for migrants in the city. But will they be enough? Meanwhile to the north in Calais, the continuing existence of "the Jungle" with its 10,000 inhabitants is causing local tempers to fray.
