Remember, if we have no border trade controls at the Irish/NI border, under WTO rules we have to treat all other countries the same way.

Whatever it is the EU are the ones that effectively have the final UNILATERAL say. The UK isn't that bothered, it is the EU that is kicking up all the fuss and insisting it is THEIR border.

The World Trade Organisation (WTO) has said that there is nothing in its rules that would force either the EU or UK to erect a hard Irish border after Brexit.
The Geneva-based trade body where countries negotiate the rules of international trade would only intervene in a dispute over trade if one of its 164 member countries made a complaint.
