Sorry, Husk. Just, peacewalls, armoured vans, anti-rpg netting on precincts. >.>

And largely we are not that stupid any more, thought some pricks remain and continue to cause shit each year, thankfully they are dwindling in number as younger people really cannot be fucking bothered dealing with it.

Terrorism defeated by lazy millenniumials.

Brussels is willing throw it's own member under the bus and restart the troubles just to fuck with Britain for leaving.

This... This is why all these countries are petitioning to leaving the EU.

[Republic of the Cristo]

Neither Scotland nor Northern Ireland will leave the UK. When the negotiations take place, I think Ireland will tell the EU to go to hell and ask for a soft border. The Republic and the 6 counties do A LOT of trade and many families are separated by the border. Northern Ireland already voted on the referendum and overwhelmingly they chose to stay in the UK, and I don't think they are going to change that now just because of Brexit.

Well, Scotland and NI voted stay in large part because they wanted to stay in the EU. Then Brexit happened.

NI voted in their referendum 1996 to stay - 98% in fact. Are you telling me that NI voted back in 96' the way they did because they thought Brexit couldn't happen? During the actual Brexit vote, 44% voted to leave, so I am preeeetty sure that they are going to stay. http://www.bbc.com/news/politics/eu_referendum/results

And Scotland may have expected to stay in the EU, but by voting to stay in the UK they acknowledged that they are willing to take the chance of leaving the EU.

What countries are petitioning to leave the EU?

[The Two Jerseys]

What a silly post.

The Common Travel Area between the UK and Ireland has existed since 1923 - long before the EU was so much a gleam in someone's eye. Brexit has nothing to do with it. In fact it's actually the Republic of Ireland who have advocated greater border control, since 1997, again with nothing whatsoever to do with Brexit.

The CTA pre-dating EU membership does not preclude it's removal in any way nor does it prevent the need for a hard border between either the island of Ireland and GB or the Six Counties and Ireland (both of which would increase the Republican cause). Ireland has an EU responsibility to police a border between the EU and a non-member state. To avoid doing so would place us far too heavily under British influence.

Ireland is outside the Schengen Area, so no, they don't have an "EU responsibility" to police the border.

The CTA is still valid. This whole thing is merely Brussels' attempt to intimidate the UK.

1. There was no 1996 referendum

2. The last referendum indirectly addressing the issue was in 1998 when just over 57% of the voting age population backed remaining under the control of the Brits.

3. The last referendum to show a 99% support was in 1973 when the referendum was entirely boycotted by Catholics.

Jesus if you're going to try and weigh in at least be close to facts.

Nah, the UK can keep the North. It's far too shambolic for us to want it back.

Just give Norn Oirland back to the Sidhe. The Fair Folk shall rise again!

What countries are petitioning to leave the EU?

Not even the UK has filed an official request to activate art.50 .

So, the number of countries petitioning to leave is so far exactly equal to the logarithm of 1.

Sounds like a plan. What could possibly go wrong?

Well, I don't think the Sidhe wear toupees, so it's already better than having Trump or Berlusconi, innit?

Ireland should be annexed by the UK and then used as a testing ground for NBC warfare.

Yah.

Just the 26 counties that rebelled though. The six counties oop north can be the observation centre.

Although flaming red hair coupled with radioactive green eyes would be quite on the awesome side of it.

[Herargon]

Please, god no. I don't want IRA happening again.

[Herskerstad]

The government of Southern Ireland probably should make their intentions clear in this regard if they desire a costly reunification in the long run or if they desire the north to stay with the UK/be their own separate entity.
