You can see why I mentioned that I am not petty.

We let in nearly half the total from non eu last year. Do you see a difference between a house occupied by 4 Pakistanis as opposed to one occupied by 4 Poles? If we let in the same amount of EU and non EU, do you see a difference? Control apperently doesn't make a big difference to quantity. It...

I can see the bigger picture though and am not petty. The EU is more than just Juncker and gravytrainers like Farage.

There is no difference. They all take space whether they are controlled or not controlled. The numbers are very similar.

I said I want things done as well. The salaries, pensions, number of jobs, people like Schultz and Farage getting mates well paid jobs at the drop of a hat. Generous tax free allowances for attendance that are claimed when people are not there. Then people abusing the benefits system etc.. With...

Are you saying that the catholics want a hard border, or a border at all?

I am only talking about the border, not remain or leave. They voted remain in the referendum which entails staying in the Customs Union. On the border, just over half means a majority. Ask any leaver on here. The DUP are shoreing up the UK government which means they have a disproportionate...

The Northern Ireland parliament is Split almost 50:50 between republicans and pro uk representatives. It is suspended at the moment, but it would be good to hear what they think via a debate. We know what Sinn Fein‘s MEP thinks of a border- something to do with sticking it in a place where the...

More than half voted remain. No one has asked if they want a soft border through being in the Customs Union, but they did vote remain which implies that.

I said, yes it’s bad. A large portion of migrants come from elsewhere. How come is it the EU half that cause the housing problem? It depends what you class as homeless. According to some classifications I was homeless for years. I didn’t even know it. I was young and was voluntarily homeless to...

Juncket is not the whole EU. Cameron went over very halfheartedly. There are many people in the EU who want the same things as you do.

Really? Which way did the referendum go in Northern Ireland go? Why have 64% of the NI population now got ROI passports - more than Protestant community? Do the ROI want a soft border and NI in the Customs Union? Are the DUP MPs all sensible intelligent people who accept geological and...

Not time today.

This is and was the Irish Problem in mini form. Astute is British lives in Cumbria, doesn’t like the EU or Juncker. The ROI wants a sea border with Britain - the island of Ireland as one economic entity with both sides of the border in the Customs Union and a soft border separating the political...

Yes. It is a normal thing to have a border. Some have hard borders others don’t. The difference being the history of Ireland. People are married and related to one another. They have a soft border now. There is also the GFA and the peace process. This is not like, says, Norway and the EU, or...

No, we don’t know how good or bad it will be, but what we do know is that it is very likely that it will be bad for both sides in the short term. The difference being, that I don’t think it is worth the risk to go through all this whilst not knowing that we will be better off in the end. Remain...

The EU is surrounded by the EU external border. They are not „taking it that way“. It is a known fact there is a border around the EU. The postal worker in Chatham should have thought about that in assessing his leave vote - as should have the other leavers, but I suspect that many believed the...

They have offered that for NI and ROI is in favour of the proposal. I would take that seeing that ROI and EU agree, and then move on to the other 2 points. Problem it is the DUP - not Juncker - who would never agree and seeing as they have May by the „balls“, there will be a continuing problem.

No, but I was covering that eventuality as that is the usual leaver retort to the peace achieved by close cooperation after the war.

The EU is not bringing in a border. We are by leaving the EU and thus creating a customs border.
