Why did I waste my time trying to educate a thick fucker like you ?It is very much their business..The reporter is not a "brit". She is Irish. Its a whole other country mate.Miriam Lord: How Mike Pence shat on the new carpet in Ireland’s spare room
Our Irish friends seem to have got the measure of the man.
The hospitable hosts buttered up their important guest and made a big fuss of his family and hoped he would say nice things about them to the important people he would meet after his visit to Ireland.
And he told them they were wonderful and that he loved them. He even said a special prayer for everyone and then, just before he left, he turned around and kicked them where it hurts.
It came as a shock.
Like pulling out all the stops for a much-anticipated visitor to your home and thinking it has been a great success until somebody discovers he shat on the new carpet in the spare room, the one you bought specially for him.
Not sure the reporter is but they sure whine and cry over nothing. Are all you Brits as petty as you and the writer?
So then why is she worried about Brexit? Seems silly to me, it isn't her business anymore than it is Pence's or mine.
The Republic has the only land border between the EU and the UK.
Currently ,under the Good Friday Agreement, it is an invisible border and goods and people cross it without let or hindrance every day.
This has brought prosperity for both Northern Ireland and the Republic.
The GFA brought peace because it utilised both countries membership of the EU. No need for border controls because we are all European.
So the loyalists are comforted because they are still a part of the UK and the Republicans have "won" because they can feel Irish and not British.
Any change to that will cause a resumption of war. Its like having a border between New York and New Jersey and then implementing a trump wall between the two.
If the Uk crashes out without addressing this issue then this will end. We will see the return of border posts in an area which was referred to as bandit country only a few years ago.
A no deal brexit will also see tariffs introduced on goods which can cross the border several times during its journey to market.
This will enrage people on both sides of the border but especially the catholics in the north who will see the UK govt reneging on a treaty which brought peace to the region.
Of course the UK could isolate Ulster and put border checks on the mainland. Making Northern Ireland a special case. However this would then enrage the DUP (proddys) who are currently propping up the government at the cost of several billion pounds.
They feel that they are as British as anyone and as there are no borders between Liverpool and Manchester why should there be a border between Belfast and Liverpool
So there has to be a border somewhere. But wherever you put it you will upset one or other side who signed up to the GFA. And then lots of people will die.
They have had 3 years to sort this and havent even come close. Not one solution has been put forward. Theresa May tried to fudge it by hoping a future unicorn IT solution could be found . Johnson isnt even bothering with that.
The people of Northern Ireland votes overwhelmingly to remain because they like peace. They dont like bombings , shootings, checkpoints, soldiers on the streets. kids being blown up, mass unemployment and so on.
The people in the Republic like peace and free trade as well. Dont we all ?
Dickhead Johnson doesnt give a shit about this and is playing to his Little Englander base. The fanatics would see all of Ireland in flames in order to lose the EU.
This is why the Irish have been enraged by Pence telling them to "support brexit". It was a big FU to Ireland or , as she says, a shit on the carpet. It is very much their business,
None of mine, It is the Brits issue, not mine. The people voted for it, their will should be followed. IMO. The fact you don't like it makes me think it is a great idea.
