    Martyn Selmayr said during the May negotiations that losing N Ireland was the price the UK must pay for Brexit. The people in Brussels are ruthless

    The UK can't leave all EU institutions, including the customs union, and not have a hard border with the EU.

    There can't be a hard border between NI and the Republic because of the Good Friday Agreement.

    A united Ireland is therefore a logical consequence of Brexit.

    let the northern irish have a referendum
    should there be a percentage set that everyone will be happy with
    or will 1% in favour of an outcome be enough

    I will but you're wrong about me. I accepted the result. However I and nobody else anticipated leaving without a deal. The price is too high potentially to be honourable about it. If given another vote, I will do what I did last time - vote to remain. Nobody is to blame as much as the Tories for the fiasco of the last 4 years and if they had got their act together we,d be out now with a deal. However if by some fluke BJ manages to secure a deal rather than a spell in prison so be it. We will all enjoy the consequences good and bad but please don't have a go at me then if it all goes pear-shaped and I say " We told you so".

    Can’t help but feel this issue should’ve been dealt with pre-referendum if not pre-declaring we’re leaving as hastily as possible to save the Tory party. England has thrown NI under a £350m a week NHS bus.

    This is interesting. I hadn't seen it when I posted earlier about Cummings's propaganda.



    Find simple slogans and repeat them over and over again.

    I doubt N Ireland would vote for a United Ireland, just as Kiwi implies, but if there is a majority, then fine

    Let's all bow down to the wisdom of a man that thinks rape and physical or mental disability is something to laugh about. :)

    Elaborate please. As far as I can tell we’ve created our own mess and are now blaming everyone else for it.
