Brexit Without The Bullsh*t with Gavin Esler
In association with Hillsborough Castle and Gardens, Historic Royal Palaces
From fishing to passports, the backstop and the border, BBC TV veteran Gavin Esler presents a no-holds-barred guide to the most momentous change in the United Kingdom for decades. On the eve of the most recent deadline approved by the EU (at time of going to press), Esler presents his findings in Belfast, with Northern Ireland at the heart of the Brexit negotiations.
Brexit Without the Bullshit is not about the Brexit you were told you were getting. It’s about the one that is arriving.
