Well, Mr Johnson will have until 19 October to either pass a deal in Parliament or get MPs to approve a no-deal Brexit.

As I've pointed out, a deal cannot even start to be negotiated until after we've left. Even then is takes time to properly scrutinise anything.

Yes the UK could do that, but it’d cause increased customs delays at airports. Something Ireland wouldn’t have.

“Ireland has had access to the pharma market by piggybacking on the UK. Having some 60m people next door who speak the same language has been beneficial,” said Mr Connolly.
"If manufacturers have to produce different batches, or packaging, or marketing material for Ireland and that drives up costs, they might decide not to bother if they think it won’t pay them to do it.”
