⁉️⛔️NEW: 'A border poll is not for now. It’s not in my medium-term sights. NI is an integral part of the UK. I voted Remain in the Brexit referendum, and there are opportunities here.' 🎤🎥Chief Reporter @jamesgould23 speaks to the new Northern Ireland Secretary of State, @RhonddaBryant. ❓️He says a border poll on a united Ireland is not on the agenda now or in the medium term. ✅️He describes Northern Ireland as “an integral part of the United Kingdom” and says its unique position following Brexit presents economic opportunities that should be better explored. 💰On the budget, he says there will be no blank cheques and that difficult decisions will have to be made. Asked about frustration surrounding the budget talks, he said he would not be laying down markers on his first day, joking that doing so could mean he would not remain in the post for very long.
