Thread Name: BS: G.B. and N.I.?
Subject: RE: BS: G.B. and N.I.?
1. Teresa May spoke earlier this year and said there would be no General Election.

What May says and what May does are not necessarily the same thing, that truth applies to most politics and politicians.

2. "The first of those principles is stark: there should be no physical border infrastructure of any kind on either side of the border between Northern Ireland and Ireland. I want people to be absolutely clear: the UK does not want to see border posts for any purpose"

How on earth is she going to equate 2. with the DUP's stance of:

"The Democratic Unionist Party, which views the return of a hard border as reinforcement of Britain loyalty to Northern Ireland"
