    Whoa! 'Theresa May to call Arlene Foster later today to pitch border deal'?

    Surely even May isn't incompetent enough to make an offer to the EU on the border without first running it by the party currently keeping her in office? Surely?

    Ni will effectively remain as an EU state in all but name in relation to all dealings with the free 26 counties of Ireland.

    Basically an outpost, different to the rest of your so-called United Kingdom and if anything more aligned to us than the other 3 countries which make up your outdated concept of Great Britain.

    Arlene is going to go fúcking mental.

    Great Britain is the name of the Ireland, sw, and will continue to be so even if Scotland, Wales and England were to go their separate ways - not sure how that can be an outdated concept

    I reckon she is - wouldn't mind be a fly on the wall for the conversation though. Would be a lovely irony if Ireland becomes a more united entity thanks to a government backed by those ****ers

    Lots of benefits for the UK if that were to work. It would effectively allow the UK to retain economic access to the EU while remaining politically outside it. NI might become a very handy place for UK businesses to set up satellite offices. Of course, we would have to restrict entry from NI to GB to keep the foreigners out.

    sigh - as I'm sure you know, rich, sorry sw, it refers to the geographical size in comparison to the rest of the British Isles, of which Ireland is, of course, one.

    Must you be so literal with names? Is Ireland really a Land of Ire, A Land of Anger and Wrath? Oh...

    If it keeps the Northern Irish out - win, win

    It simply means great in the sense of 'encompassing the whole island and all nations and principalities therein', you tit.

    Besides, there's fücking loads that's 'Great' about it.

    Result imo. The Brexit bonus. Not only get rid of Brussels but give N.Ireland back too.

    Your fine Guards! can deal with a few hundred thousand orange loonies.
