We have never had open borders. Except internally. And with Ireland, which used to be 'internal'.
It's entirely conceivable that we will have open borders with the EU at some future point. That would not necessarily imply common citizenship or an unlimited right of residence. That is the current position within (most of) the EU and it seems to work reasonably well.

The question was, why do we have borders? The simple answer is 'fear of the unknown'.

It’s about money and services etc too.

Businesses being international/global entities has muddied the waters with tax Etc.

You are ridiculous.

Not as silly as your strawmen. Bit of an overused tactic now.

Did you only attend the first class of logical fallacies 101?

When you think about it logically, why indeed are there any borders anywhere. We are all human, why do we need borders.

Why do we have borders? Can anyone give a good reason as to why they exist?

Defines ''property'' ....lands owned by foreign powers. If you look at maps of Africa you'll see that a lot of the 'borders' were drawn with rule(r)s. (This was the issue with the Tutsi and Hutu's)
