Stop being disingenuous, the reference to border checks and physical infrastructure in the B.A. was about security and the prevention of terrorism.
When the B.A. was created Brexit wasn't an issue.
There has been a border in N.I. for 100 years, pretending there isn't one won't solve anything.
So you agree that the N.I. protocol was about averting the threat of terrorism and nothing to do with trade.
you still havent explained the problem of the external border to the Single Market...which brexit creates
I can only presume you cant, hence why you keep swerving.
Not sure the people who lived in HK at the time felt or feel that was a problem solved. I'm not entirely clear what you mean by giving NI back to Ireland? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irish_War_of_Independence There may equally be an argument to restore it within the UK.The simplest thing would be to give Northern Ireland back to Ireland, like we did with Hong Kong. Problem solved.

...negotiating in good faith...
We didn't care about the Hong Kong Chinese at the time. But the Northern Irish already have British and Irish citizenship so they're doing much better.Not sure the people who lived in HK at the time felt or feel that was a problem solved.

Let's face it, NI is a drain on the UK financially and a car crash politically. They also voted to stay in the EU, why not let them?
NI is a massive complication to our desire to leave the EU, let's face it the referendum said we must leave, so why let s little thing like NI stand in the way?So is Scotland. Which if independent wouldn't qualify to join the EU. As for Hong Kong, as said was on a 100 year lease.
But then you have the EU, keen to help Spain break an international treaty against the overwhelming majority of the population.

We're already screwing around with that anyway. Boris is trying to rip up the only solution agreed to avoid a hard border.Things like the return of sectarian violence and the ressurgance of terrorism perhaps?
Then again we should also chuck into the mix that only 40% of NI protestants voted remain.

If Ireland will take them then I say give them the option.
Ireland and the UK, if we **** around then they can mess around in return. What's that, you're stuck in a camp near Calais, how about a free trip to Ireland. There's some lovely camp sites there.Who is going to enforce the hard border, if the UK chooses not to? Ireland? the EU?
If you can't answer the question on the Data Laws thread, you look ridiculous accusing others of swerving.
