I wonder how those We The North hoodies are playing out in the Republic of Ireland this summer.
Ireland has never wanted a border between it and the UK's Northern Ireland, but the UK will soon require a manned and gated presence if it wants to keep EU goods from flowing freely into its colony, and from there into Scotland, England and Wales.
Of course Scotland may vote to secede from the Kingdom and, like Ireland, join the EU. Then what? A UK reduced to England and Wales? Ever met a Welsh nationalist?
A (gated) wall along the Kingdom-Republic will cost a lot of money. I don't think charging admission into Northern Ireland is going to fund it.
