My real gripe is with the Remainist TM who never stood up to them early on.

The Irish border thing is a feint and not a good faith item; it is the EU playing the GFA and bugging up the risk of terrorism. But this is being done for the sake of the Irish economy. With that in the balance along with the 39 billion, we could have plaid stronger cards.

So do you feel that the Anglo/Irish Good Friday Agreement is irrelevant to the future UK/EU relationship or is it overplayed? What would have been the ideal compromise with the UK leaving while preserving the GFA or should we ditch the GFA?
