"and there was me thinking Jim had lost his keyboard."
You wish !!!
I'm sure you know the old Billy Connolly statement - "If you want to confuse a policeman, ask him a question"
The same appears to apply to Brexiters.
"Can anyone see the border issue leading to a united Ireland?"
Irish Taoiseach Leo Varadkar has stated that Ireland will have no part in any negotiations without an agreement on an open border
As far as the North is concerned, the religious gap between the Catholics and Protestants that the leadership has so long depended on is rapidly shrinking and the DUP is so far up to its arse in scandal and contradiction that its position is becoming untenable
The 13% that declared they supported a United Ireland 7 years ago have now swelled enormously and Sinn Fein, once a hardline republican party, is now just one seat short of being Stormont's largest party, with 27 seats to the Democratic Unionist Party's 28 seats.
It seems to me that a UNited Ireland is now on the cards
