Yes there have definitely been mixed messages from them. Notably the Irish Government have said they do not intend to build a border. It has been a different story coming from EU bureaucrats though and the reality is they will need one. It would likely lead to a new push for reunification if it ever happened. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would likely lead to a new push for reunification if it ever happened. I assume the Irish government will maintain their right to refuse an EU request to build the border? Assuming whether NI left the UK to join Ireland would be decided by a NI referendum, I’m left wondering what the likely outcome would be. Could it hinge on how future trade deals affect the NI economy or is the demographic stacked so heavily that the outcome is inevitable? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post OutByEaster? Posted March 20, 2019 Moderator Popular Post Share Posted March 20, 2019 Has the woman who has refused to allow any sort of progress in the debate on Brexit for six months really just lectured every other MP on refusing to "Get on with it"? She's mental. The country teeters between No Deal and Revoking Article 50 while the woman in a position to make a decision sticks her fingers in her ears and maintains the ridiculous denial that everyone will vote a deal that nobody likes because she's the bestest and most cleverest so there. Utterly insane. Utterly unfit for duty. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utterly insane. Utterly unfit for duty. Whilst I agree, it could be argued that blackmailing Parliament into accepting her deal for fear of a no deal, is a clever way of getting her way. What I don’t understand is why Parliament voted to restrict itself to leaving on 29th March 2019 no matter what the forthcoming negotiations turned up.

In all fairness to the Germans I think they are just getting on with the things. When VW announced last week 7000 job losses and that they were shifting significant production volumes to China and the US, I don’t think Brexit was mentioned as a factor by management, media outlets...or this forum.

Lip service, one suspects that everyone who has signed it knows this, but what it does at least is give a verified (by the government itself) number to the strength of feeling in the country and also shows it per constituency Its pointless but not pointless I only got up 20 mins ago and its put on 50k in that time I guess they might shit a brick if it reached 18 million people but that isn't going to happen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, How he arranged the meeting with Hans Solo in that bar is anyone's guess also. Solo, was a known criminal at the time, people and contraband smuggling I understand.
