Just when we thought the Remoaner delusionals couldn't get any sillier. Why does anyone believe the EU has the power to break up the UK?

Or, just possibly, could it be another ham-fisted negotiating stance, to be dismissed out of hand...?

You know, I have a funny feeling the humans will sort it out without having to have a bunch of meddling <unt$ from 2000 miles away get involved.

There you have the whole Remoaner problem in a nutshell.

Post Brexit the UK will be perfectly free to negotiate a deal with Eire to allow existing Irish business to continue as before. However the EU rules won't allow that to happen. Even if they tried to set up a one-off deal to allow it, which they won't since that would break their federalist ambitions, then at least one of the 27 would cry foul and veto it.

A nice example of why we will be better off outside the EU bureaucracy, and why it isn't up to the UK to come up with an answer. We have one, the EU doesn't.

Corbyn offered a perfectly acceptable solution in a speech yesterday and there are plenty of Tory MPs prepared to support it, so in the end it won't be a problem.
