On this show I speak with Neal Richmond of the Irish Government, where we talk everything EU and BREXIT related. Ireland is remaining in the EU and while BREXIT has had negative connotations we explore some of the positive aspects of us remaining as the U.K. formally leaves. Neal shares how we have a much more global outlook today than when we first joined with a reduction in U.K. exports from 60% to now 10% as the USA is now our largest trading partner.
EU Overview:
- Neal shares what his career thus far and why he is passionate about community politics
- What is the history of the EU and why was it formed.
- Why has the EU benefited Ireland more than most, Socially, Politically and Economically.
- Why has the British relationship with the EU always been difficult since the times of Churchill.
- How close was the referendum and why the campaign was so visceral.
The Post BREXIT World:
- What happens next for the U.K. and what are the opportunities for The Republic of Ireland.
- Why being the only remaining Common Law and English speaking country brings massive opportunity.
- Why it’s natural for EU Citizens to come to Ireland when they’ll require a VISA to live and work in the U.K. post BREXIT.
- What are the differences between Physical Goods and Services Post BREXIT - The Backstop Versus The Frontstop.
- Why the treat of a No-Deal BREXIT is still on the table.
- What are the Tax and Standards likely to be from the U.K. going forward.
- Why restricting immigration will ultimately hurt the U.K. in growing in a post BREXIT world and why this is Ireland biggest opportunity.
- Why Ireland has 6,000 new jobs since BREXIT and this will only grow.
Neal finally explains what the ‘Craic’ means to him and why Ireland remains a prime location for the Tech Sector.
