@leavethisbotnet But ROI will be
Yes, and?
And the ROI is part of the EU, thus the movement to Ireland continues
Yes, but not NI
Then what’s to stop people from just walking over the ‘electronic’ border?
Nothing.
a big beautiful wall
The only way to stop that is through a hard border
Weez, the point is making is that the UK can accept freedom of movement with Ireland and northern Ireland but nowhere else as we wont need to abide by EU regulations anymore. It'd then be down to the EU to grant the same freedom of movement to NI citizens to Ireland.
Which breaks the Good Friday agreement
If they refuse, it also puts the EU in a bad light <:smugon:512048583806025739>
What stops people from doing that RIGHT NOW?
Nothing
We’re in the EU.
EU is literally using the "we're gonna be dicks for the sake of leverage" argument
you know, the people who are not EU citizens and therefore can't just go across the channel..
@Mikey The EU has already said they’re not going to start ‘chopping’ things up
the ones that are sneaking into trucks in france
Or breaking their fundamental agreements
why don't THEY just go through Ireland and NI
if it's so easy
Because there’s no need at the moment
There’s an easier route..
People take the easiest route possible
Then there's no issue with the Irish border.
If we leave. That becomes if.
That's sorted.
It *
You mean the route that has hard border?
and border checks?
Yes, they allow all EU citizens through that border,
but not others
The ROI and NI border?
Or the ROI border with the EU?
No, the border between France and GB
that's the one with border checks
Correct.
yet that's the route many illegals take
instead of going through ROI and NI
Because it’s the easiest.
