Cerberus Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 Think of the impact on Scotland’s communities losing 300 cops to patrol a border in another country to enforce a xenophobic process that no community in Scotland voted for. Madness. This is the Brexit the DUP and **** voted for. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Granny Danger Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 In the highly unlikely event of a No Deal Brexit there will be a hard border between the ROI and NI. Anyone who thinks otherwise is totally deluded. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there was a snap election and Boris won with a sufficient majority enabling him to tell the DUP to fuckoff would he consider that option? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The EU will have as light handed checks as they can, with trusted trader schemes and the like, for goods coming over from Ireland, probably on the Continental side, and do zero about goods or people going into NI. The UK will do similar at airports and ferry ports on the mainland but will get panicked into doing something stupid on the Irish border when smuggling goods and people really takes off. WTO rules will be a license to print money. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Granny Danger Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 Gammons want no free movement, a hard border is a small price to pay. Until Corporal Bob from Basingstoke gets blown up by the super-duper new IRA. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pish The whole point of brexit for the dummy class is to enable their proto-fascist wet dream about keeping out Johnny foreigner. The whole point of brexit for the devious manipulator class is about shorting the UK and making it a low tax, low regulation sweatshop to undercut the EU. Neither is compatible with allowing a free EU-UK border in NI. Unless NI is given up and a hard border is put up in the Irish Sea. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granny Danger Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 Voters have short memories. Or maybe most of them simply don’t give a f*ck. The sooner we are separate from this mess the better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone who thinks otherwise is totally deluded. Nah, I think the government will betray the DUP. Much much cheaper and less hassle just to set up a customs border+ in the Irish sea - a solution which when polled with the NI electorate, achieved support of 60%. It's the initial plan May had and whilst the ERG kicked up a fuss, they really don't give a shit about Ireland - they were just whipped into a small frenzy about it as it suited their interests at the time. They will probably try to call it something else but it'll be done. The public in the rest of the UK don't really care either and it'll be sufficient to 'take back control' with immigration and trade. There may be a game of chicken for a while where the government try to just undermine the customs union by not taking any action but the prerequisite of any future trade deals with anyone will require that they protect this in some way - even with the US, Canada, India, Australia, South Africa, Turkey etc who are all working on free trade arrangements with the EU or have them in place or the existing agreements or negotiations are undermined. The EU is a much bigger economy with more clout in this case. The issue can't afford to drag on for us. Never say never but I don't see this ending with billions of pounds of spending being put towards a solution which divides communities and then fucks up our future arrangement with the United States (who would never approve a deal in that instance) and then creates decades long issues due to our violation of an international treaty. The ERG don't get anything from that, they know that NI is gone anyway - all we're doing is putting it in a holding cell for a few years. A game of spin is much easier. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The backstop is not the only part of the WA that the ERG oppose. They will oppose it anyway but a number of Labour (hopefully soon to be ex Labour) PMs might help get Johnson over the line though the arithmetic will be very tight. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirty dingus Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 The term Torn faced cow was invented for folk like Swinson. A small crowdfunder from a local constituant has just raised enough to print 20,000 leaflets highlighting her voting record which will nae doubt be a timely reminder if there is to be a snap election. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's a copy of part of the title page. Looks like UK legislation to me Perhaps she is actually more informed than you are. The correct legislation is The General Product Safety Regulations 2005 which does implement an EU Directive. This legislation specifically removes section 10 from the CPA 1987 and therefore removed the offence of providing goods that "fail to comply with the general safety requirement;" which is now part of the GDPSR 2005. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
