TSSALuke The man’s a lunatic.
Oh the irony! 'We want to leave the EU because we don't want to be told what to do... so Ireland, you do now what we want to make it happen'

BorderWarnings As a precondition of this 'new union', Ireland should have its own EU referendum with its votes added to the UK's. When the overall result is shown to be Remain (as it will), the UK should withdraw A50. As the enlarged UK is now remaining, there's no need for a union. Solved.
Hahahaha
He probably wants to buy Greenland too!
Never, never, never!
I guess Eton's history dept. Isn't all its cracked up to be...
