    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    They have stated today that Northern Ireland must have the same brexit deal as the rest of the U.K. otherwise they’ll pull their support of the minority Tory government. Which could possibly force another general election, or possibly completely change the face of brexit. Maybe even to the point...

    Yeah exactly. What’s to stop Scotland demanding the same deal as Northern Ireland? Then we’d have two custom borders within the “United” Kingdom.

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    The mess is that to transport goods from one part of the U.K. to another part of the U.K. said goods will have to go through a customs check. Will that have to happen wether the goods are being forwarded to the south or not? Will it have to be done regardless because the simple fact is that with...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    I would look at the population statistics before proclaiming that most of them are proud to be British. The difference in terms of percentage is down to single figures and Protestants are on the decline while Catholics are on the rise. This means that certainly within my lifetime Northern...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Which I think roughly reflects the population split in Northern Ireland now. I think the splitting of the Union is closer than people think. I always thought it would be the religious demographic of Northern Ireland that would tip a united Ireland but I’m now thinking its going to be the...

    Just watching the news and hadn’t considered that if you don’t have a border between Northern Ireland and Ireland ie a 2 tier brexit, they’ll probably have to be a border between Northern Ireland and the rest of the UK. This is a mess. A customs border in the U.K.

    And I apologise if it caused any offence.

    It was as a performing monkey. Not a racial slur. He knows this though. But true to form he’s adopting misrepresentation. The last time he pulled this one out (not the first time he’s done it) it was after me and another poster who is from an ethnic minority both pulled Grendull up on something...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Certainly in the border counties and towns there’s no hunger for anything to change regards the border. It’s actually something Protestants and Catholics are united on in my experience. I mentioned some time ago I have family who now have an Irish passport. Something unthinkable not that long...

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    It’s that long ago I honestly couldn’t say what I did or didn’t mean. However plausible you’re explanation sounds. Either way I have no problem admitting I was wrong. I’m at least big enough to do that. Whatever else I might be. Unlike the pair of clowns who bring it up who somehow think that...

    Not if Norway has anything to do with it. They’ve openly said that they don’t want us because we’re too big and it would shift the balance. Would EFTA membership allow us to negotiate our own trade deals or would we have to negotiate trade deals with EFTA as an EFTA member? What contribution...

    Well what do you know. I did say it. I was wrong. See how that works. I admitted I was wrong. Now tell me. How’s that EFTA membership you voted for coming along?

    The DUP are on slippy ground here. I only have my own large Protestant family to go by (we’ll that and Northern Ireland voting remain) but it’s my experience they’re not representing their audience here. There’s no hunger amongst my family to see the border change. The DUP could be slitting...

    You really don’t. Someone a bit sore because they’ve just realised that they didn’t know what they voted for?

    The EU: In, out, shake it all about....

    Trying to be smart again by making things up. You know every time you say it it doesn’t make it look more likely that I actually said it. It just makes you look more stupid (if that’s possible) than it did the last time you pretended it was the truth.

    There’s a fine line between bravery and stupidity. Fernando crossed it. Nothing brave about what he did.

    They’re certainly not happy. DUP warns Brexit may jeopardise Tory deal Another ill advised decision from the Tory party.

    You’ve already said it doesn’t represent you. Clearly you already think it hasn’t paid off.

    You gambled on what it would mean then and your gamble hasn’t paid off. Sounds a bit of a silly thing to do if you ask me.
