Indeed.
Would there need to be a new treaty when we leave or would it just be a case that as we are no longer part of the EU, borders to the UK would close?
Indeed.
So do the other side you buffoon.
What of the people in Ireland that want to be part of the UK? Where do you consider them when you cut them off beyond your border control?Because that's not what they want. Let me put Facts simply
Ireland north and south don't want a border
Ireland is an island
Border controls at points and airports exist
Ireland is unique north and south
I say look at the possibilities
Unnecessary you sanctimonious PR**k
I've launched it ..........Why?
No new treaty as we will in effect withdraw.Would there need to be a new treaty when we leave or would it just be a case that as we are no longer part of the EU, borders to the UK would close?
As we currently have at airport's for non EU nationals. Problem?
Hmmm
So you want to negotiate by expecting the other side to allow you to fuck them up the arse.
Spectacular.
No new treaty. They are all still signed up to it.
Effectively our name gets crossed off the members list.
Not really. You have been impossibly dense for about three hours so I lost patience.
1. We have to bear all the costs.
2. We have to introduce a system that assumes people coming from EU countries are economic migrants and screen all of them which won't go down well when we are trying to negotiate a trade deal with the EU who will quite likely be looking for as few restrictions as possible.
3. If we stop them exiting Northern Ireland where do we send them? Back to the republic? They would just cross the border again, maybe set up a Calais style camp just outside George Best Airport.
I agree, thinking outside the box is important - but you still have to deal with the fact that the box actually exists.
The reasons for nipping it in the bud more like.You're right with costs. You may he right with the camp! Just because my idea may not work does not mean its against a treaty or should not be explored
Oh go of **** yourself if you want to be rude.With an irish grandmother, dual nationality is available to me so get off your high feckin horse. Expain or tell me why a port border post brexit doesn't work?
Dont be so $#@!ing precious, I have no high horse to get off, couldnt get up on one for a start.
What do you expect when your spouting rubbish that clearly shows you have no idea what your talking about? Several posters have told you on here today that you idea is unworkable, nobody objects to flying kites for a reaction but when your told its wrong just accept it.
A port border would be a practical solution but its nowhere near that easy, it would be massively symbolic in Northern Ireland and one thing they are big on is their symbols.
I doubt it would make the slightest difference to you (or me for that matter) where I would have to show my passport, but when you are essentially moving the physical border from Newry to Stranraer/Heathrow etc. You are telling the people that probably hold the UK/Union/Britishness most dearly in the British Isles that they have to show a passport to get into their own country (ironically they were the ones who voted for Brexit) and they have the same rights and have to go through the same procedures as someone from Dublin with regards to getting into the UK. Tell you what, head over to East Belfast and put that suggestion to them and see how you get on.
Whilst no-one wants a trade border, some people in Northern Ireland still want a border, the Republic to them is a foreign country, they already have a siegelike mentality, what with the Catholic community catching them up numbers wise, Irish government talking of a unified Ireland and the feeling that London would quite happily be shot of them a long time ago if they got the chance, now their own Government is telling them that residents from a foreign country plus immigrants from various other countries can come into Northern Ireland unchallenged, but they have to show proof before they are even allowed into their own country! They are going to be a bit peeved and if history tells us anything they will do more then a few protest and petitions to show their indignation.
I dont know what is the best solution regarding the border because honestly there is no good solution, we will have to hope they find "the least worst option" and hopefully it doesnt piss too many people off and at the same time doesnt damage trade (should be nice and easy that).
