You seem to be a tad unhappy about the Irish situation though, and a tad idealistic in expecting a country backed by the large EU bloc to give in to the UK.

I'm totally realistic and far from idealistic. The Brexit situation is far from ideal. But the way I'd play it (admittedly sat at my office chair at home) is to squeeze Ireland. The threat of scrapping the NI Protocol is a threat to the Irish economy, something they dread more than anything else (perhaps other than having to put corporation tax up!). It's then a blinking game.

I want my Guvmin to play this right by not allowing th NI Protocol to stand in its present form.
