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'

After the UK's bloody history of Irish colonisation and oppression and the security of the EU, I would imagine that's very unlikely!

Sensible idea but will never get a hearing over the screeching of the pseudo-republican, pro-EU, globalist left who control Ireland and dominate public discourse there. The EU and left have done in a few decades what Britain couldn't in 700 years - destroyed Ireland.

It would be easier if he just gave NI back to the Republic.

AdamBienkov I know the Conservatives govt has proved beyond doubt that it's irresponsible and incompetent, but now it turns out they are dim-witted and bad at politics too. Shambolic.

AdamBienkov Completely nuts!

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...
