    Honestly, that woman has been an utter disaster.
    The thing is, No Deal doesnt actually help solve the border issue. It is still a problem.

    What's the problem? Ireland is in the EU, the UK isn't, so there will be a border. Like there is between countries everywhere on earth.

    Well, yeah. So why not proceed on that basis and do a ****ing deal?

    It's not up to me mate. I don't know who you think I am, but I'm not the King of Europe.

    My point is that it appears to be a problem and,m if it is, it isnt solved by leaving without a deal.

    For whom is it a problem, p? To the EU and their precious, sanctified single market - not to us.

    If they want to impose a border, let them.

    Hang on, I thought we were jumping up and down with excitement about being in control of our own borders.... apart from that one?

    Wont all the nasty foreigners just land in Dublin and then enter the UK in the North before slowly making their way to your neighbourhood, and mine?

    Err...we would be in control of our borders. We'd be choosing to keep that one open - or not. And then we'd be entitled to set our own immigration and naturalisation laws that could control such things.

    So we would exercise our control of our border by not having a border? That makes a lot of sense

    And how do you go about enforcing an immigration law without a border?

    I believe others have considered some sort of wall in similar scenarios....

    First, you prevent them coming by making it not worth their while - no rights to employment, housing, welfare or health provision, etc, etc (as we'll be free to do when not in the EU). They'll soon fùck off back to the Republic - and if they don't, you physically deport them.
    Also, you can impose stringent identity checks on such migrants to tell you who is or isn't in your country and severely limit their rights. They can also be prevented from travelling from NI to the mainland (as we used to with certain people during the Troubles).
