The SDLP has selected West Tyrone MLA Daniel McCrossan as it's party spokesperson on Brexit.

He replaces Claire Hanna who resigned from the role yesterday, in response to a party vote in favour of forming a partnership with Fianna Fail.

Ms Hanna will continue to be a member of the SDLP and an MLA for South Belfast.

Meanwhile, Daniel McCrossan told Q Radio he's happy to move into the position but says it's a worrying time for people here.

Those in his border constituency have raised numerous concerns about Brexit.
