Leo Varadkar: 'I don’t play dirty, I don’t think most EU leaders do either'

The two spoke for about 45 minutes by telephone on Tuesday afternoon and afterwards a government spokesman in Dublin said both sides “reiterated their desire to reach a Brexit deal.The telephone conversation between the leaders comes amid increasing tensions between the sides over the planned UK departure from the EU by October 31st.

The Government wanted to contribute “in a constructive way” to find a deal “that protects everyone” but could not support the choice between Mr Johnson’s deal or no deal where “everybody gets damaged,” he told reporters at a Budget 2020 press conference. The Tánaiste said EU Council president Donald Tusk’s tweet accusing Mr Johnson of playing a “stupid blame game” was a “reflection of the frustration” that the British are pushing a “take it or leave it” strategy.
