Nobody needs to tell the WTO to sod off. It’s just my way of expressing feelings towards the EU loving crap that some on here are espousing.

So how would you square keeping the NI/IE border open without checks AND keeping the trade between GB and NI open?
Maybe it's a lack of imagination on my part but at least one of these three agreements needs to be broken;
Northern Ireland Protocol
Belfast (Good Friday) Agreement
World Trade Organisation MFN rules
It looks like the first is the one we want to break but that will then break the Belfast Agreement unless we keep the border open, breaking the MFN rules
