Reply to: Send a gunboat!

What if Ireland doesn't actually want NI?
The UK government pays NI about 10 billion a year and in return the Irish up north pretend to be British. Would the Republic give them 10 billion?
If Norway gave be £10000 a year then I promise to tell everyone that I am Norwegian.

Cheepskate!

Sending a gun boat did the UK so much good in the cod war. USA told the UK to back off as Iceland threatened to seek closer ties with Russia. And of course the UK government said "of course".

I think the easiest solution is o hand NI over to Ireland.

That's rather insensitive. The Irish have a bit of history regarding potatoes.

There was a time when they would have been glad of being pelted by potato peelings.

Cue a rousing verse of "The Fields of Athenry" - join in OG, you're a plastic rebel!

Have you not learnt anything from this sub-forum.

EVERYTHING is the fault of Brexit

Storm Freya was the fault of Brexit as were the tornado's in Alabhama

Liverpools failure to beat Everton at Goodison at the weekend has its root cause in Brexit

You name it and you will find Brexit at the heart of the problem

Gammon bait.

Did you learn nothing from the French scallop fiasco? It’s nothing to do with the EU, but with local laws.

This whole EU thing is working so well, isn't it? Far better for all that we just stay in, what can possibly go wrong?

At present, Northern Ireland vessels are banned from fishing inside the Republic of Ireland's six-mile limit.

But the Republic's fleet has not been excluded from Northern Ireland waters.

Not to mention the Irish-American lobbying (vote) with the presidential elections just over the horizon
