No need for a hard border

[NotAllThere]

I am in favour of questioning the status quo.

Just because we have always done something it does not mean we should continue to do it (and by we I mean the Human Race not the UK)

Yes, and that's an admirable position to hold. But in this case to change the status quo will require the agreement of all members of the WTO, and even if they were keen to help out the UK, it would still not go into effect until some time after Brexit is supposed to happen.

I would have though that as a contractor you'd have at least a tenuous grasp on what contracts/treaties/legal agreements are, and what negotiation is.

...Imagine if there was no border

Ah, stow it, John Lennon. These people have enough trouble dealing with reality, never mind imagining something.

And there's the nub of the problem. He's not a contractor, just a simpleton half-wit.

Is that the majority of the UK voters with their heads down, and only a minority not falling for the lies of JRM, BoJo, Gove, etc?

Good question - what do you think?

Unified Ireland.

Unified Ireland.

The Irish can't afford it.

The Brits can't afford it.

A large proportion of Northern Irish people (still)genuinely believe that they will be driven into the sea and Northern Ireland ethnically cleansed.

Hth.
