The brexiteers would be wise to fully embrace May's deal.
It's the closest they're going to get to any kind of brexit.

You're really scared that you're going to end up with a no deal Brexit, aren't you?

So is there some legal framework outside of the GFA that prevents Eire from changing how it offers citizenship to regions that it no has a territorial claim over?


As far as I can tell, it's only the GFA that prevents Eire deciding to no longer recognise NI citizens as Irish.

To be fair I don't think there would be any reasons for the Republic to stop offering Irish citizenship to those born in the North, it is something they actively want to do and reflects the complicated history of the island.

I agree there's no reason they'd rescind it, but there would be nothing stopping them if they decided to.

I'd rather have a no deal brexit than Mays deal. I actually think it's the only way to settle the matter within the next decade or 2.

The Foreign Secretary articulates what many have said for some time; a second referendum could lead to civil unrest.

Mr Hunt warned: “If we were, for example, to have another referendum overturn the results of the first referendum — let’s say the results were exactly reversed so that this time it was 48 per cent Leave, 52 per cent Remain. You’d have 48 per cent of the country who had voted to Leave twice. They would be incredibly angry and I wouldn’t rule out real social instability in this country.

Is this what we've come to?
Let's not pursue a certain course of action because it might upset far-right extremists?

Because it may lead to another wave of brexiteer hate crime, similar to the one in 2016?

Terrified.

Telegraph reports today that there's street talk among the Paris yellow vesters of demanding a Frexit. Maybe the penny's about to drop that France's moribund economy just might be linked with it's EU, Euro and Schengen membership.

Personally, I wouldn't take much notice of the political views of a bunch of violent thugs setting fire to cars, throwing missiles at police, smashing up restaurants and burning trees.
