        So ok - Brexit is going ahead apparently on 31st October (spooky).

        Rather than saying you cannot do this, you cannot do that - can you give us a solution which would work.

        Or are we saying that the UK is completely unable to leave the EU because of this issue?

        Is that the point is that the final last gasp of 'nooooo brexit needs to stop' as this seems to be the main focus of a lot of the problems.

        Do those on here genuinely think the whole Brexit idea should be shelved due to an issue on the border between the ROI and NI?

          It's your idea to Brexit, you solve it. Without magical thinking. But judging from your earlier posts, I don't think you understand the basics.

            What leads you to that conclusion?

              I believe that the previous incumbent came up with a plan, what's wrong with that?
              Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

                Take a look at the Withdrawal Agreement that the UK negotiated with the EU.

                And consider how unreasonable it would be if the EU, having negotiated the WA with the UK, then changed its mind. What would Brexiteers say to that?

                  What paperwork?
                  Do you realise that the Mersey Gateway doesn’t require customs paperwork.

                  All this extra paperwork you want to impose - is that not really that difficult to suddenly introduce to businesses that haven’t needed before?

                  Locals? Do you mean all citizens of UK and Ireland, those in NI and ROI or just those who live close to the border?

                  What standard trade rules? You said above it would be cameras picking you up and no spot checks, now you’ve changed it to “standard rules” (unnamed) and “spot checks”

                  It’s difficult enough that you can’t understand the problem or how your suggestions don’t work. But you’ve only had 3 years to come up with these. Maybe you need more time.
                  …Maybe we ain’t that young anymore

                    Stupid feckwits keep discussing the border in terms of single market / customs union which cover movements of goods. No one is taking into account free movement of people...

                      The CTA will continue. Goods, livestock and services are the problem.
