After agreeing to and now reneging on the Irish backstop. Why would anyone negotiate with her now?

Please give us your link to the solution which the Brexers have devised, documented and agreed.

(he won't)

He can't.

 

[ban-all-sheds]

Tech solution available,,,wait and see!..

What is it?

Please tell us.

Or bluster, prevaricate, dissemble, "joke", and otherwise prove that what you say is a crock of ****.

You’ll have to wait until March 29th to find out, so go take your medication and have a rest.

If you really believed there was a solution, you wouldn't care about the Backstop, because it would never come into force.

And even if there wasn't, if all the things that people like David Davis and Liam Fox said were true, we will have the necessary agreements in place to stop it coming into force.

So two reasons for them to be cheerful then - I really don't know why they are getting so agitated about the backstop. Surely it can't be because secretly they don't believe that this technological solution exists, or don't believe what was said during the referendum campaign?

Jeez! It's really easy to get these Remoaner drama queens going.

Thank God that, as useless as our MPs are, they are nowhere near as hard-of-thinking as you.

Yes - isn't it funny how intelligent and honest people get agitated at suggestions that the country be run on the basis of stupidity and lies.

EU has lost patience with UK's inability to decide what it wants.

People don't seem to realise there already is a border in Ireland between North and South.
Two separate jurisdictions, different Laws, different tax regimes, different Vat rates ,different currencies, different road signs, Miles in the North and Kilometres in the South yet trade runs smoothly.
Along the border they deal in Euros and sterling every day, most bank transactions are done electronically Vat and other taxes due across the border are paid by pressing a button.
Most paperwork to do with different regulations North and South is done electronically,
The Backstop is a fraud designed to undermine Brexit, the EU is completely ignorant about Ireland and they don't realise the potential for serious repercussions if they insist on the annexation of N.Ireland into their control.

 

[EFLImpudence]

Do you think these threatened repercussions are an acceptable state of affairs?

 

[ban-all-sheds]

the annexation of N.Ireland into their control.

You need help, you really, really do.

 

[ReganAndCarter]

Yes - isn't it funny how intelligent and honest people get agitated at suggestions that the country be run on the basis of stupidity and lies.

Could be worse. Komrade Korbyn could be running the show.

 

[ReganAndCarter]

You need help, you really, really do.

Case in point.

Has anyone ever noticed that about nutters? They always believe they're normal, and accuse everyone else of being the ones with mental problems.

 

[securespark]

I don't have any mental issues.

Now let me get back to my conversation with that nice Mr Ronnie Reagan.

Wibble...

Theresa says that there must not be free movement between EU27 and UK. Therefore, there must be a hard border with passport checks, and may well be visa or other requirements. That's because of Theresa's "red line" on stopping free movement.

Theresa says that we must not be in the single market. Therefore, there must be customs posts and border checks, and may well be tariffs or other requirements. That's because of Theresa's "red line" on single market.

Theresa says that we must not be obliged to follow EU rules. Therefore, our products may not conform to EU standards and will not be automatically alowed to enter EU. For example they will not accept chlorinated chicken. So the EU will in some way have to verify acceptability of products. Perhaps that will be done by an imports agent inside the EU who will be responsible for tests, certification etc. This will be a non-tariff barrier to the free movement of goods. That's because of Theresa's "red line" on following EU rules.

Theresa says that there must not be free movement of goods and people between EU27 and UK, but there must be free movement of goods and people between NI and RoI. Northern Ireland is in the UK but The Republic of Ireland is in the EU. Therefore there must be a hard border between NI and RoI. But simultaneously there must not be a hard border between NI and ROI. This is impossible, but it's what the Brexers demand. The Brexers are mad.

Perhaps Theresa, or our next government, will take a different approach and will start trying to agree deals after we've left.

Nobody knows.

So by default, the EU position is to stand firm and allow a no deal to happen thus being equally responsible for a hard border coming into effect. They say they don't want a hard border but the lack of willing to discuss will inevitably lead to the very thing they say they don't want. Seems like a lack of common sense from both sides.
