What will pass through?
Goods produced in the ROI going to the UK and on to the EU will and vica versa.
I dont see goods produced in say Argentina bound for Austria going through the border and if they did i would be looking for a new freight forwarder.
No but you have to have the same across all of your borders and we cannot give the ROI preferential treatment, than say goods coming in from Argentina.
Am I right in saying, if one border is open and free between UK and Ireland as well as being free to everyone then we aren't just talking about the one border and entry point all borders and entry points have to be free and open to all.No but you have to have the same across all of your borders and we cannot give the ROI preferential treatment, than say goods coming in from Argentina.

No-one can agree that this is the case though.We’ve done this before, haven’t we?
They don’t enforce anything, you get legally challenged in an international court by another nation, if you do not offer them the same terms.
We have a land border with only one nation as per the UK union. Everything else must arrive into this country by sea or air. So regardless, we have a 'border'.Yes.
Absolutely.

Preciesely that. We say we won't implement one. Ball is then in the EU's court. We already have a border, the Irish Sea, the English Channel, the North Sea, the Arctic Ocean. Even goods coming from NI get checked at GB ports.Getting abuse from a couple of users here. I will ask the question, which so far has not been answered, what will we do instead of a backstop? Do you think that we can carry on, as now, with no real border, or do you suggest something else? I assume we will need a border?
WTO if we leave and go onto WTO rules with no deals in place.According to who and for what purpose?

Any links to show this?
Pumped to know that the Tories are the ‘party of the people’ but only those people who voted or believe in Brexit so that’s half the country that can fuck off then and even more pumped to know that our new PM regards the term ‘Remainer’ as an insult up there with ‘traitor’ and ‘betrayer of Britain’.
I may get tshirts made with ‘Remainer’ on them just for the lols.
Cheer up......at least he didn't call you a nazi fascist ;-)
And what about Northern Ireland? You think they're happy with the backstop?So, your answer is ‘do nowt’? Leave our side of the border open? Isn’t that the ‘backstop’? Thought the idea was to get rid?
After Black Wednesday the government and the Tory press tried to place the blame on Soros and other speculators. It didn’t work, the public put the blame firmly on government incompetence. It would be the same with no deal but on a much bigger scaleI don’t think so. The disruption would be blamed on 1) the EU creating more of a nationalist view and 2) ‘this is what you voted for(source: Ledsom and Hunt 2019). But no one wants to think they are responsible so will defer to option 1 and we will get through with ‘optimism’ and the D-Day spirit
65% of them are, which is a lot more of them than voted for Brexit.And what about Northern Ireland? You think they're happy with the backstop?

Which we keep, since we helped to write those regulations.It doesn’t matter whether it’s land or sea, it’s the regulations, tariffs, health and safety regs etc etc. that matters and these checks will need to align in Ireland, Dover or Folkestone.
When you arrive at Customs it’s the same.
