European Parliament's Brexit coordinator tells UK that it is not very responsible to try and get rid of backstop

The chief Brexit representative for the European Parliament, Guy Verhofstadt, tweeted:

"Today I see Taoiseach Leo Varadkar and tomorrow Prime Minister May. My message to the UK will be that it is not very responsible to try to get rid of a backstop that is meant as an ultimate safeguard to avoid a hard border and the return of violence on the Island of Ireland."
