    Lets see how long the EU sticks together in a trade war, imagine having a country with an economy the twice the size of Russia and nuclear weapons as a neighbour and pissing them off.

    It's going to be great. Like the old days.
    The EU will enforce a hard border. Ireland can just join Schengen a much larger free movement area then the UK and Ireland
    Nice neighbour you are woohoo, threatening the EU with nuclear obliteration (remember France has them as well and they don't need permission from the US to use them)

    But then again, what do you expect from someone who thinks agreements are bad and should be avoided/broken and to hell with the consequences.

    Great Scott man, I know it’s hot but are you on the sauce already?

    Of course it isn’t tied, my first post was in jest, before you went rambling off about how the Withdrawal agreement something something.

    Yes, it will.

    And the three main heads of any agreement with the EU will consist of citizens rights, the U.K. border on the island of Ireland, and the financial settlement. Whether this happens before October, or whether the U.K. leaves with no deal and then seeks a trade agreement afterwards, makes no difference. Those are the three things that need to be settled before any future relationship is discussed.

    Honestly, this has been told to Brexiters time and time again. Are your ears painted on?
