It’s a statement of fact to say Britain wants to leave the EU, Single Market and Customs Union. It’s a statement of fact to say that the Irish Republic does not.

Therefore this situation, that didn’t exist before now, does so because of Britain. It’s impossible to not have a border.

As much as the Empire types would love to see it in the Channel between the EU mainland and the islands of Ireland and Great Britain it’s not going to happen, and infringes on Irish sovereignty of all things!

No, and you damn well know that’s not the point I made.

A migrant from the EU can enter the island of Ireland legally anywhere in the Republic. They can walk across the non-exitant border into the occupied six counties.

Presumably we don’t intend to put more stingent controls on travel from Northern Ireland to Great Britain?
