For God's sake we all knew that Brexit could not work if Northern Ireland remains part of the UK. Quite simply it must become part of Ireland and I reckon those living there, orange or not, would be pleased to cut the tie with stupid Brexit England. Likewise, now, Scotland must become Scotland. Who needs England or Wales. Let the mutilated UK stand as a silly, bigoted two country state, as unimportant as Switzerland or Norway.

Should there be barriers between Surrey and Sussex? Trade sanctions between Cardiff and Birmingham? Don't be stupid. Likewise there simply cannot be any barriers of any kind between England, Scotlands or Wales with Northern Ireland; all parts of the UK as much as London and Glasgow are. But likewise, there cannot be open borders between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland if one is in the EU and the other isn't. Simples.
