I suggest that you do some research rather than simply post your usual Pavlovian response that because Boris said it, it's better than Holy Writ.

 

Then you will know what is obvious to the rest of us; including the DUP who you love to call upon in support of your arguments.

Already there mate. I read the relevant chapters - they are not what you claim. Better you go have a read of it too, rather than The Grauniad.

@nauseus frequently brings this subject up, and every time he proves himself incapable of seeing the difference between an alliance of independent forces and a single force subject to the control of a single bureaucracy.

 

Whether that is a deliberate ploy in an attempt to justify his argument, or due to lack of intellectual ability; only he knows.

Please continue so the rest of us know what you are actually talking about.

We better leave NATO as well. Its always talking about better integration of its member states armed forces.

Being a member of NATO also undermines our sovereignty. 

Mmmmmm sovereignty.

English being my 4th. language. I  do my best.

Google translation is not always the most accurate.

However pretty sure you understood what I intended to express. 

Which I think is the most important in a conversation between people with different native languages.  

I understood your spite. So there is not conversation to be had.

If you have read the relevant chapters, you have clearly failed to understand them.

 

I will try and make this simple so even you can understand.

 

Whilst the Belfast agreement does not specifically mention that there should be no hard border between North and South, the implication is there and that implication has accepted by all parties ever since.

 

Except for your heroes in the DUP who rejected the whole agreement at the time.

 

Brexit meant that there was now a land border between a non EU state, the UK, and an EU one, the RoI. Under normal circumstances this would not be a problem. The EU has land borders with many non member states with the appropriate controls at those borders. 

 

But as stated, the history and politics of the island of Ireland made this simple arrangement impossible, so a solution had to be found. In May's deal this was the backstop, in Johnson's it is the protocol.

 

Remove that protocol and replace it with nothing means either a hard border or an open one.

 

The EU would understandably find an open border with a non member state unacceptable; and many British citizens and politicians would find it unacceptable as well. Especially those that support Brexit.

 

How would you feel about the UK having an open border with the EU which anyone could easily cross with no checks? Wasn't doing away with that one of the main reasons for Leave winning in 2016?

 As made clear by the post I quoted and responded to; I'm talking about your obsession with the imaginary EU army.

So the inevitable conclusion is that there will be a hard border between Rep Ireland and N Ireland and there will probably be violence and unrest involving IRA and others and what is currently happening is just a blame game? Making sure the EU gets the blame for the inevitable consequences of Brexit?

Full of yourself again, and got it all wrong again. 

You said:  Now Johnson wants to remove his Northern Ireland Protocol from his withdrawal agreement. This will break the Belfast agreement as it effectively places a hard border between Northern Ireland and the Republic. 

This is simply not what the IMB says. Try get it right rather than drifting into your made up consequences, with which you hope to return to Project Fear. Well it didn't work last time round and it won't work this time.

Again these old-fashioned and irrelevant bluster.

It was Russia that defeated the Nazi army and the Americans who finished the work in Western Europe, mainly to block the Russians.

Without them you would probably be speaking German today.

This in no way detracts from the courage of your fathers who bravely fought the aggressor, like that of all resistance fighters in the occupied countries.

What are you on about, my points are nothing to do with WHO won the war, it is about WHO were complicit in aiding the German government of the day, whether 100% or factions, that is the reason some of you here want to forget that period in time, I don't, because if folk could do then perhaps they could do it again....

I can understand your fixation with WW2. It was the last time the UK was a significant factor in world events.

Since then it has been a long, slow, painful decline.

Those days are not coming back. The UK is now an insular, backward looking small island.

Get used to it. Most people have.

I don't see the problem with an E.U. army.

Should it represent a greater danger than any other army?

Would they than intend to invade the U.S.A. or Russia or...

Happy to be informed what the concrete risks may be.
