One more time as it seems that some haven't got this yet. Peace in Northern Ireland was possible because of a frictionless invisible border, which is only comes about EITHER by EU membership OR by membership of the Customs Union AND the Single Market (both of which our useless PM has ruled out). Basically the GFA is a fudge. It allows nationalists to travel unhindered and unfettered between north and south, so they can effectively regard themselves as being in a single country, likewise unionists can point to the border line and say that NI is still a separate country. Any border infrastructure which, should we exit the CU & SM, is *mandated* by WTO rules that brexiters are so fond of throws a spanner in the works. A large bomb was detonated in Derry this last Saturday, the first in years. It would seem that this is a price worth paying for blue passports. |
