    Got to give the chap a big round of applause.

    The 'backstop' was a work of pure genius.

          Simple.

          Negotiate with 26 other countries having your back, and make sure that the party you’re negotiating with don’t have a clue what they’re doing.

            Anything would look like a work of genius when there’s David Davis on the other side of the negotiating table.

                It is the solution to his agitation.

                NI politics is the steaming tulipe pile best left ignored, he has wandered in chucking petrol over the place, Now the whole thing falls down on this backstop.

                I would suggest his ethnicity has left him outside much of the debate growing up, unable to grasp the enormous subtle complexity of the situation. Now he navigates the issue like Stevie Wonder going shopping for snow globes.

                  The Irish got absolutely pummelled by the EU after the crash. As soon as Brexit is over they will be dropped.

                  Their economy is overheating again, as soon as the next recession hits they will be flattened. This will be their future, unable to control their monetary policy it is endless cycles of boom and bust as a German provincial state without German voters.

                    So yes, it was May's idea? Why is this all Leo Varadkar's fault then? He didn't vote the UK out of the EU .... we made that decision and caused all these issues. Ireland and the EU are just protecting their own, as we are trying to do. Brexiters need to stop blaming others for their mistakes and start to take some responsibility for their own actions.
