If the gain outweighs the disbenefit then it might be worth it.

Andrew, you haven't answered the question at all. I'm trying to get to the bottom of YOUR view and take the Remainer aspect out of it.

This "ideal world it shouldn't" phrase is pure weasel wording. It doesn't get to the root of your belief.

The problem you have here is that of course you don't want the EU to screw us over - but you can't bring yourself to say so. I don't find that particularly honest.
Andrew, You must know that you're dodging the question. Nothing is taken in isolation. The nub of the problem is the possibility that the EU can interfere with food traffic between England and NI.

There is no gain in disrupting the Union by this means.

So, again: Do you agree that that the EU should be able to affect food imports to England from NI?
