Northern Ireland has been at the centre of the Brexit negotiations since 2016, but how much do people in Britain really understand about the country?

Novelist Glenn Patterson has written a non-fiction book, Backstop Land, which examines the impact Brexit is having on people's perceptions of Northern Ireland and what it has been like in the years since the Good Friday Agreement.

He joined us on The Last Word to discuss the book.
