Good spot!
Looking on the Sky News web site, it looks like a North Sea border is the option. Auntie Arlene will not be happy....
100% veterinary and phytosanitary checks on the north/republic border too. Gonna need to close some roads I think.

Ok, if you want to pick hairs, the majority of the electorate who voted. I am happy with that, but I am not happy with the argument some seem to have that those who did not vote would have voted remain.
We live in a democracy, but nobody is forced to vote (in some countries, it is compulsory). However, if you don't vote, you cannot justifiably argue that the result was unfair as it wasn't what you wanted, or it wasn't representative.[COLOR="Silver"]

The electorate were told quite clearly that the result would be binding.
The process to achieve that maybe complicated, but that is a matter for the politicians to resolve. There is no case for the public to be involved in actually making the ultimate decision, any more than any other decision that a government comes to in carrying out its manifesto.

Clearly, the Northern Irish border wasn't the problem they made it out to be, then.

Well, if true, Barnier will know, unless he's an idiot, that such a solution is not acceptable, in which case there will be no deal based on that within three days!

It's not acceptable to the government, either, so it's a no deal if that's the best the EU can do.

A link would be handy. A bald statement without any back up is just speculation. Truth is, we don't know what May might try and get through, we only know what people "say" they "might" do.

worst of all worlds is no deal and parliament will sure no way vote for that and before you shout project fear read article 50
Article 50
1. Any Member State may decide to withdraw from the Union in accordance with its own constitutional requirements.
2. A Member State which decides to withdraw shall notify the European Council of its intention. In the light of the guidelines provided by the European Council, the Union shall negotiate and conclude an agreement with that State, setting out the arrangements for its withdrawal, taking account of the framework for its future relationship with the Union. That agreement shall be negotiated in accordance with Article 218(3) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union. It shall be concluded on behalf of the Union by the Council, acting by a qualified majority, after obtaining the consent of the European Parliament.
3. The Treaties shall cease to apply to the State in question from the date of entry into force of the withdrawal agreement or, failing that, two years after the notification referred to in paragraph 2, unless the European Council, in agreement with the Member State concerned, unanimously decides to extend this period.
4. For the purposes of paragraphs 2 and 3, the member of the European Council or of the Council representing the withdrawing Member State shall not participate in the discussions of the European Council or Council or in decisions concerning it.
A qualified majority shall be defined in accordance with Article 238(3)(b) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union.
5. If a State which has withdrawn from the Union asks to rejoin, its request shall be subject to the procedure referred to in Article 49.
so every treaty will be lost for everything so project FACT

I am not quaking in my boots, Dave. We will get an agreement, the only question is about the detail of that agreement.
Leavers want out, which means not being in the EU, Common Market, or Customs Union. We don't want their damn treaties!

A link is not necessary to support an opinion. However, the view I have expressed is commonly held. Many leavers want no deal with the EU at all, and if TM breaches another red line, she'll not get it through. You will be well aware that many people believe that Chequers itself is dead, so nothing that gives away more than that stands a chance.

Stop it, Dave. Please don't fall for that nonsense. We will simply get new agreements or make new arrangements. Both sides will avoid that kind of disruption. This negotiation is more about privileges than anything else.
Remember, the EU said some months ago that the deal was already over 80% agreed. We've moved on since then, so there's not that much separating us now.
Sit tight, and enjoy the ride.

They already have, haven't they? If there was a border in the North Sea, what would happen to trade between Ireland and Northern Ireland? Unless all trade to and from Ireland went via mainland Europe, there would still need to be a border between Ireland and NI.
I can't see that being acceptable as it would increase journey time and costs. Not impossible though, I guess.

Apart from possibly this?
Brexit deal 'a week away' but May must agree on customs union, says Barnier
Quote:
Michel Barnier has claimed a Brexit deal is within reach by next Wednesday but warned the prime minister that only by abandoning a key red line and agreeing to a customs union can impediments on trade between Northern Ireland and the rest of the UK be avoided.
The UK would have to give up on its plans for free-trade deals with China and the US under such an agreement, the EU’s chief negotiator insisted, but otherwise a customs and regulatory border within the territory of Britain will have to be erected.
