Border - Brexit and the Irish Border | Short Documentary

We hear their stories and the struggles they may face.

Well, finally it appears we have an answer!

[kierangreene]

Reunited Ireland is the only solution!

May I use the little bit going across the border there for a short report in Cornish I'm making on the issue?

Reunify Ireland! Referenda for Northern Ireland and Scotland, Fall 2021! Wales will follow when the British economy is in free fall!

[Steven-ogjj]

Brexit is a joke. The only good thing that might come out of brexit is Scotland might hold another referendum and declare their independence and Northern Ireland might vote to reunify with Ireland Ireland. And maybe even Wales would get their independence though that is unlikely.
I would like to see England, Scotland and Wales all re join the EU as separate independent nations. I would say Ireland too but Ireland is already in the EU.

Be mature with any comments. Constructive criticism only. Let’s keep it civil.

So what’s about now is it still open border or became hard border?

The Obviouse answer is a 32 county reunification of the Island of Ireland

[booksbeliever]

People are reduced to uncertainty, tut.

[CelticG]

Why is know one talking about uniting Ireland???

[HYUKLDER]

Northern Ireland either has to fully accept UK Brexit, and whatever European Union imposes on its Ireland border, or Northern Ireland leaves UK and rejoins with Ireland to become one country albeit now only an EU region.

They do realise that the US/Canada border is 3, 000 plus miles long and there is not a problem with it despite trading agreements etc. The Irish border is actually peanuts and you cannot have an open border with a foreign country, especially the EU.

On that land things should just be left the way it is..and that is what the British are implying..it is the EU that is making an issue of it..so why are the Republic of Ireland looking to the British for assurance when its the EU that is making noises about borders..it should just continue as it is.No barriers for the people of that land.The Irish should tell they're Government to tell Brussels that is how they want it as that' is the way the British and people of Northern Ireland ...and the Republic of Ireland want it. If EU "Rules" get in the way then they are the source of the problem ..not the UK.
Going back to the UK to get assurances when its the EU that are looking to put a Border if Britain gets out of the Customs Union..Is sort of like my wife telling me over and over that her feet hurt but I instead just keep rubbing her behind !
It should be considered a free country by both.They are talking about Standards of Food Etc. Irish Standards for food are of very high standard..what is to check ?

[Christinebanks]

I never voted for trump, but I will next election !

We cannot give the 350, 000, 000 to the NHS because we are still paying it to the E U. I'm sorry for the inconvenience the Business, s are suffering and I hope things will turn out ok but remember Ireland voted No Lisbon Treaty and the E U made them vote again. Twice in France and the Netherlands referendums were ignored. We have to say No to the E U in its present form.

[newkekarmyreee]

Behave ourselves. Than there will be no problem. So what if we have to show a passport.. We may be more able to control the extremists better.

[bieituns]

If I had to show my passport going into Wales or Scotland it wouldn't bother me. Why are the Irish making a mountain out of a mole hill.
