Default Re: there "is" no issue or there "are" no issues?

Both are fine and the choice would be whether there was an issue or issues, in the speaker's mind.

3. There is no issues

This one is not likely to be used. <There's + plural noun> , as in, "There's no issues", is very common in speech for all levels of English speakers.


Which one is correct grammatically? Thanks in advanced.
