Because, you know, there was already a trend that forecourts were more about the retail, were more about selling people sandwiches and cups of coffee.

But presumably the fact that people are waiting for their cars to charge has amplified that trend.

Presumably that means that the food offerings

is more important.

Because if people are sitting around, it's not just enough that you give them a cup of coffee and a bun.

I'm delighted you said healthy options because my biggest bugbear is that a lot of filling stations where you stop, it's fast food.

And if you're not into fast food and you're sitting there waiting for an hour, or in your case, half an hour, it can be a little unpleasant.

I look forward to the expansion.

Ciara Foxton, Managing Director of Circle K Ireland.

Thanks for joining.

us this morning.

Breakfast Business with Enterprise Ireland on Newstalk.

Welcome back to Breakfast Business with me, Tom McEnany, standing in for Joel Lynham.

Now, with the UK's Reform Party leading Labour and the Tories in opinion polls, the question we have to ask is, what would a reform government mean for trade with the UK?

And in particular, the special arrangements agreed for Northern Ireland post-Brexit.

Our next guest is Anand Menon, Professor of European Politics at

at King's College, London.

Professor Menon, you're in Dublin to speak in a conference titled Ireland, the UK and the EU, what's next for international relations and trade?

It's organised by Rockwood Public Affairs.

I presume you're looking at, one of the things you're looking at is what a reformed government in the UK would mean for trade relations with us and indeed the rest of Europe.
