If we're going to inspect every vehicle entering/leaving Northern & Southern Ireland, let's start doing the same with everything else eh

Everything that has come from NI, has either come from outside the EU, and as therefore gone through the same processes as it does now, or has come from the UK.
The only problem products are ones where the UK rules differ from the EU. That won't happen for a while, and any differences are not likely to be that big. Current EU rules aren't always adhered to by EU countries, so ultimately there is no real difference to what goes on at the moment. Largely a big fuss over nothing.
