^ Yes, it has so many mis-steps and elements of farce. The current bind that Teresa May is in with the DUP is all of her own making, isn't it? She threw away her Tory majority in an election that was a spectacular miscalculation.

For the sake of Ireland, I hope they can work out a soft border that'll go along with a soft Brexit. Have you seen how they've done it, somewhere in Scandanavia I think ? Of course up there the cross-border traffic is about one sleigh per day, apart from a seasonal peak at Christmas of course.

Humiliation is over lads. Our horrible pink passports (which aren't even pink) will soon be a thing of the past and we are taking back control. We are having blue passports. If this isn't a statement to the world then what is? We are back

''Eurosceptics say burgundy EU passport is a ‘humiliation’.''
