Irish PM says Scotland-Northern Ireland bridge ‘worth examining’
Ireland’s premier Leo Varadkar has said he will not dismiss the idea of building a bridge between Northern Ireland and Scotland but insisted the UK must pay for it.
UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson and the Democratic Unionist Party have spoken in favour of the idea.
Last week Mr Johnson described it as a “very interesting idea” and added: “Watch this space.”
Mr Varadkar revealed he told the UK premier it was “worth examining”.
Architect Prof Alan Dunlop previously said the “Celtic bridge” would cost about £15bn, a fraction of the estimate of £120bn for an English Channel bridge.
