Just as a matter of interest, what do you think of the possibility of the UK deciding to have no border posts on the Irish border? Would the EU insist on border posts on the ROI side?

Also, any trade tariffs inflicted on the UK because of Brexit would also apply to the EU. Would any of the major EU countries see this as a problem?

Its not the EU that need asking that question,its the tories current saviours the DUP.

Leaving the CU is incompatible with the Good Friday Agreement,unless NI enters in to some special arrangement to have seperate customs laws to the UK- which looks extremely unlikely with the DUP involved.

In december the UK said it would maintain "full alignment" with the (EU) Internal Market and customs union. So can some clever person tell me why we are backtracking on that now ?
