Not yet, but I assume at some point I will need someone who specialises in the disposal of dead schemie hoors. I'll keep you in mind. I expect that will be one of the UK's few growth industries in the next few decades.

I wouldn't get too comfy if I was you. 

In the anarchy and lawless that will follow a hard Brexit your castle will come under seige you Toblerone munching c**t.

I've watch Lord of the Rings AND Game of Thrones; I know how its done.

About halfway down that story it says the EU will allow Ireland to waive physical checks in the event of No Deal. 

I saw that the other day.  I have no idea how such a waiver would be compatible with EU rules and tariffs.

The EU make the rules and the EU can bend the rules. 

And they're not prepared too,according to Barnier just now.

I'll be one of the few folk in Scotland who can afford to buy a round in the pub. I'll have enough hangers on willing to take a chibbing for the team.

Could you though? A round has no set cost; it shall be decided via the barter system.

I think I might go back to my original plan, which was to smuggle slave labour from Scotland into Switzerland. Sounds like it will be much less effort.

In the post-Brexit dystopia they’ll  just hit you over the head and steal your dosh.

You’re better staying with the Nazi gold hoarders and their cuckoo clocks.

I'm remodeling myself as a modern day Oskar Schindler and I will save all the young wids from the horrors of a Hobbesian, nasty, short and British civilisation by outsourcing them at rates below the Swiss minimum wage and making huge deductions to their salary for the convenience of being allowed to kip in the bunker adjoining our basement.

Another day another mental posture from the UK government:

https://www.scotsman.com/news/politics/theresa-may-eu-must-change-unworkable-brexit-position-1-4771587

The backstop for NI was staying in the single market and customs union, so if that now has to apply as the backstop to the whole UK Rees Mogg and co are not going to be happy but they are the ones who pushed the amendment so that's clearly not the end game. This is heading for a no deal WTO rules level Brexit at this point and expecting the EU to budge is just a way to try to pin the blame on them.

I genuinely have no idea what she expects the EU to come up with. There has to be a border between the EU and a country outside of it as unless I'm mistaken? So that border will either be between Northern Ireland and the Republic or between a United Ireland and the UK. It's not complicated.

This Tory government does not care about respecting the Good Friday Agreement - her 1 billion bung to the DUP for a "majority" further highlights this.

The movement of people and goods must be friction-less - even the use of technology for this will still allow some friction in some capacity.

Theresa May on the news describing the Irish border issue as “unique”.  

It’s not unique, it’s not even close to unique; there are lots of hard borders between EU countries and non-EU countries.

It is unique due to the Good Friday Agreement. Very unique

Is it?  It's a big world, you're intimately familiar with the peace settlements in East Timor and Dr Congo are you?

Was, not is, was.  The U.K. has voted to leave the EU.
