I do wonder what loyalists in Ireland must be thinking currently? Sadly I doubt they will all see that re evaluating their loyalty to a mainland which transparently couldn't give a fuck about them is in order. Rather just turn on one another. Then on the mainland again eventually. Yes totally predictable and depressing and so needless (Brexit).
Has Brexit achieved anything positive yet?

As anybody with a brain cell would have anticipated.

Obviously - but there's more worrying and ominous aspects.
The protesters have segregated into Republican and Loyalist groups.
And instead of directing violence at the authorities/police - they're targeting each other.
Just like old times.
Placing the Peace Agreement, which took years to implement at enormous cost, in grave jeopardy.

Obviously Barney; that is my point.

Brexit didn't really apply to Northern Ireland - which remains part of the EU Single Market (and subject to its directives), unlike the rest of the UK.
A totally impractical, illogical and cumbersome complexity - which is beginning to reignite the tensions between Catholics and Protestants.
