    Big difference between trains on one set track and a truck on over 200 potential back roads and byways. Also tech can't check inside trucks etc.

    The lady hit the nail on the head at 14 mins, the Irish can't negotiate there own free trade deal with the UK because of the EU. The EU has took the sovereignty and independence away, from every single EU member.

    A soft border is the best solutions but until someone actually spells out the details of how it will be implemented it's just pie in the sky. As the country leaving and creating the problem, it's up to the UK to spell out the details, just saying that it can be done isn't enough.

    Guess what, food and agricultural products are often perishable. So it's logical that with your closest neighbour, they are a disproportionate part of the trade.

    Interesting to hear John Bruton. Ireland was a much better place when he ran the shop.

    The problem was, is and will always be that the political establishment have no right to surrender the sovereignty of the nation (Britain) to a foreign body without the specific consent of the people. End of.

    Europe has hundreds of different histories in just the past few years and thousand more in just a hundred years to billions and billons etc etc etc

    Interesting that they think Irish trucks will be fast tracked at Dover, what about at their entry to the UK? If the EU plays games then surely the UK will do the same?

  • @samhartford8677

    Hilarious listening to the Brexiteer five years later. 😂 Their idiocy is so entertaining.

    this is, very likely, a completely naive impression from an american observer who is dumbfounded by this 3 year divorce proceeding, but I sense the Irish (having been thru their own Nasty divorce from England) and sided with the E U, prefer the buffer that provides them - from a time when England engaged in some brutal domestic violence.

    I think Dr Graham Gudgin is absolutely right, the Irish Border issue can be resolved with technology. All we need now is a way to stop the dishonest people who operate this technology to stop being so dishonest. Or is that what “trusted traders” is? If we can all be trusted to do as we are supposed to do or said we have done then we won’t need all this checks at the airport.. If only the EU can started trusting people more….In reality I think Dr Graham Gudgin is taking a lot of garbage…

    After Brexit food prices in the UK will go up, but it will only be temporary. There are many countries that would love access to the UK market. The problem for the Irish and the rest of the EU is once the have lost the UK market they wont be able to get it back.
