Dublin, London, and Brussels—Who will be Responsible for the Border?


Professor AAA states: “The UK also never offered suggestions for how to get a [post-Brexit] transition to operate smoothly.” If Professor AAA means the Irish-Northern Ireland (NI) border, then the UK has said simply that it will not put up a border wall. It is EU law which will make (or is likely to make) the Irish put up a customs/revenue wall [or other border controls]. How Ireland and the EU will implement EU law is not a question that the UK should be asked to solve—that’s entirely a question for the EU and its institutions, Ireland and its people, and other EU member states and their peoples. Professor AAA’s argument here (made in many fora [by many other people]) has always been nothing more than a distraction: political responsibility for the border (at least initially) will lie with Dublin and Brussels, not London. It is not the job of the UK to solve an EU problem under EU law.

That is what “Leave” was all about.

I rarely share my story with people, not only because it put me at the lowest point ever but because it made me a person of ridicule among family and friends. I put all I had into Binary Options ($690,000) after hearing great testimonies about this new investment

 strategy. I was made to believe my investment would triple, it started good and I got returns (not up to what I had invested). Gathered more and involved a couple family members, but I didn't know I was setting myself up for the kill, in less than no time all we had put ($820,000) was gone. It almost seem I had set them up, they came at me strong and hard. After searching and looking for how to make those scums pay back, I got introduced to maryshea03@gmail.com to WhatsApp her +15623847738.who helped recover about 80% of my lost funds within a month.
