And could it ultimately lead to a united Ireland? Dan O'Brien, Chief Economist at the Institute of International and European Affairs and columnist with The Sunday Independent, Katie Daughen, Head of Brexit Policy at the British Irish Chamber of Commerce, Fianna Fáil Senator Mark Daly, and Aoife O'Donoghue, Professor of International Law and Global Governance at Durham Law School, joined us to discuss the issue.
