Dominic Raab: EU figures' attitude to Northern Ireland 'offensive'
Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab describes the attitude of various EU figures towards Northern Ireland, and its position as part of the UK, as "offensive" - adding the UK "wouldn't dream of" referring to Corsica or Catalonia in the same way.
He was speaking after The Telegraph newspaper reported that France's President Macron told the UK Prime Minister last night that Northern Ireland was not a full part of the UK in the same way Toulouse was a part of France.
