    Well not really sure the 'IRA' actually exists anymore.

    Irish Republican Army - Wikipedia

    Didn't they change their name to the real IRA?

    But surely any 'Army' which is not backed by a government and exists to protect that country is actually just a group of terrorists?

    but I am not expert so surely someone will be along to correct me.

What's your fantastical solution other than "not leaving"?

    There is a simple solution. The UK leaves the EU. End of.

    Brexit just keeps on giving

    I do, however, hope Bojo gets his own way and stays in power to deliver it. I'm all for a hard brexit. It's what the gammon leavers deserve

    He wouldn't be the first politician crusading for something that they don't even believe in.

    If does die in a ditch, at least he has the comfort of knowing that there's a special place in hell waiting for him.

    Gammonflakes are the Brexiters.
    Millennial Snowflakes are the Remainers.

    Get your tropes right.

Still, as there are infinitely many compound nouns for snow in the Eskimo-Aleut languages, so are there infinitely many ways for you to appear as thick as whale mince. One small idiocy at a time, “not all there”.
