Proposal from Barnier on Brexit is 'non starter' for UK

Proposals from the European Union's chief Brexit negotiator Michel Barnier that would give Britain the unilateral right to leave the customs union are a "non-starter", a Sky News reporter cited sources in the Democratic Unionist party as saying on Friday.

Sky Northern Ireland correspondent David Blevins quoted DUP sources in a Twitter post as saying the Barnier proposal showed "no respect to the constitutional and economic integrity of the United Kingdom. It's a non-starter."
