Fresh concerns about the Irish Border after Brexit will be raised this morning.

Sinn Fein will rally at Bridgend on the Derry Londonderry / Donegal Border over concerns the entire UK will leave the Customs Union and Single Market.

It wants Northern Ireland to have a special status.

A spokesperson for the party says this action is "part of a series of demonstrations which will be held along the border and across the north."

Meanwhile, Border Communities Against Brexit had been due to hold a "go slow" protest on the M1.

However, the group has decided to cancel the action. It says it will update us on it's views on the latest deal between the UK Government and the EU "very soon".
