^ Simply all because Arlene kicked off, that is your original excuse for your earlier drum banging on the 1st page.
Sick sheet of want want want,nothing ever changes, due a greatbig foook off and not before time,
Btw you are right Jack Hardshaw.

You are a Scot,why are so vocal concerning the Irish border? You must not have understood the question earlier in the thread or you went conviently "deaf".

My wife is Irish. And why so vocal?
Well having listened to her and her family who are still in Ireland I know that nobody wants a hard border.
The only point I've made is why are the ROI not putting the rest of the EU under pressure rather than trying to force the UK to go against the wishes of the majority here.
There are implications to staying in the Customs Union and Single Market, ie we have to sign up to other things as well.

Be honest,correct label is British from the North of Ireland, poor effort really, fool yourself.

haha, you are the "hun", the usual throw mud,yeah some may stick but 1.01 i called it right,goodnight now.

So now it isn't Ireland(first few posts),the UK or Europe but the DUP, what a surprise.

It's always the same with those darn flat-earthers.

As regards membership of the EU ?
Well people in Ireland , north and south , have a very privileged position
After Brexit they alone of all European countries will maintain the automatic right to live and work in Britain and Europe

They should, if they were sensible , keep as quiet as possible and hope nobody notices

Correct me if I am wrong, I frequently am.

"People who are citizens of the United Kingdom (UK) are entitled to live in Ireland without any conditions or restrictions.
Unlike the citizens of other countries, they are not subject to the Aliens Act 1935 or to any orders made under it.
This means that a UK citizen does not need a visa, any form of residence permit or employment permit in Ireland.
They are entitled to move to Ireland from any country and they may move to Ireland to work or to retire.
Unlike other EU citizens, UK citizens may retire to Ireland without having to establish that they have sufficient resources or that they have private health insurance."

Yes.  It means the Unionists have cancelled the Brexit vote of the UK.

no ? thought not

kincsem , I will have to explain again .try and read slowly and understand

I didn't expect an immediate response , I expected a response that showed you didn't understand
It had nothing to do with when you might or might not respond
Now is that clear enough ?

As to you not understanding what I meant by the fact that Ireland alone of all European countries will maintain the automatic right to live in both Britain and Europe ?
Well I don't believe you don't understand what is meant by that
There is no point in talking nonsense about Ireland being a European country , so is Britain  for that matter , so what?

It is just that sort of dishonesty that is worse than not understanding , so don't try and pull that one
I'm not filed by that sort of rubbish

Now if you can not at least try to be honest we are not going to get very much further

That at least would be acceptable to the unionists , on that narrow but fundamental point of maintaining the integrity if the UK
Whether it is a good thing is a different question

The thread was born in regards Irelands hard stance over a free border, you know who ye are on the thread,and all because Arlene kicked off,it appears as was stated Ireland wanted a soft border along with the UK EU and the dup,now the dup have changed their mind,were they so thick stupid that they couldn't see the point that there would be a slightly different demograph then the rest of the Uk?
It wouldn't surprise me given Arlenes record with the green scheme.

Apologies to Leo and Simon wouldn't go amiss on this thread.

There are those who, lacking a coherent argument, resort to personal abuse.
The DUP and their supporters wish to remain full citizens of the United Kingdom. There is nothing wrong with that.

Northern Ireland - in the EU Referendum vote
Remain 56%
Brexit 44%

General Election Results - Northern Ireland
Democratic Unionist Party 10 seats   
Sinn Fein 7 seats    
Social Democratic & Labour Party 0   
Ulster Unionist Party 0
Alliance Party    0
Green Party 0   
Traditional Unionist Voice    0   
Others    1

That's a very good show by the DUP

If they have the cheek to vote in a U.K. referendum then they will have to accept that simple principle

DUP
The Democratic Unionist Party assert that "Irish and Gaelic culture should not be allowed in Northern Ireland, and have blocked proposed laws that would promote and protect the Irish language.
The party is also a as right-wing populist containing extremist tendencies. The party has historic links with the far right in Northern Ireland and is linked to the Ulster loyalist faction of unionism.The DUP was also recently endorsed in the 2017 UK general election by the Loyalist Communities Council, an umbrella group of loyalist paramilitary groups, which are proscribed terrorist organisations.

In foreign policy the DUP "takes a staunchly pro-Israel line"

The DUP has opposed LGBT rights in Northern Ireland. Party leaders—as well as many prominent party members—have condemned homosexuality, and a 2014 survey found that two-thirds of party members believe homosexuality is wrong.The DUP campaigned against the legalisation of homosexual acts in Northern Ireland through the "Save Ulster from Sodomy" campaign between 1977 and 1982, and the party has vetoed the legalisation of same-sex marriage in Northern Ireland since 2015, making Northern Ireland the only region of the UK where same-sex marriage is not legalised.
