As an aside, I tend to link issues together, so separating threads is not always easy. So I am afraid I have to bring Brexit into this. There is talk at the moment of perhaps "solving" the hard border issue by a reunification of Ireland. There will be a lot of talk about trade and services and such like if that is being promoted. I expect to see very little talk of the fact that NI would be under the laws of Eire which means things like the abortion laws and this blasphemy law. So even if NI voted for reunification these issues could prove a major problem for the future.
