Unfortunately the British side is not clear as some would believe. As Iains link states:
"In the EU referendum, Northern Ireland voted Remain by a majority of 56% to 44%. THE DEMOCRATIC UNIONIST PARTY, WHICH VIEWS THE RETURN OF A HARD BORDER AS REINFORCEMENT OF BRITAIN'S LOYALTY TO NORTHERN IRELAND at a time of increasing uncertainty about the future of the United Kingdom, will place Brexit at the heart of its general election campaign" (my highlights)
Now that the government has to rely on the DUP for support who knows what may happen.
