Enda Kenny will discuss the idea with the North's First Minister, Arlene Foster, at the North South Ministerial Council in Dublin castle today – it's the first time the two will talk face-to-face in the wake of the BREXIT result. 

British Chancellor George Osborne meanwhile says he plans to cut corporation tax to less than 15 per-cent to show the world the UK is "still open for business".

The move would slice more than 5 per-cent off the current rate and would see Britain close in on Ireland's 12 and a half per-cent business tax.
