"Closing the border would be a massive blow to them and EU "
Closing the border is simply returning to the same position as anybody outside of the EU
The border was closed right up to a few decades ago - Britain being part of Europe opened it up and Britain's leaving has now threatened to close it
Ireland is full of European workers at present and they are all welcomed as an asset to the economy
At present Europeans are LEAVING BRITAIN in their thousands, thanks to the inescure future brought about by Brexit
Do you think the Xenophobes who voted for Brexit will be happy when Europeans from Ireland start crossing into the North and then into mainland Britain through an open Border?
That will be a betrayal of what they voted for - getting rid of foreigners
This is the great contradiction of Brexit - a move to stop immigration while at the same creating a situation where Brits abroad, including 30,000 unemployed, are quite likely to be forced to move back to a Britain that can't cope with shortages in health care, housing and employment
Your mindless repetition of Europe forcing a closed border is reaching the point of imbecility


"Too many points for one post again Jim."
You really shouldn't be here if you can't follow the argument
You are using "too many posts" to avoid honestly responding to any of them
All these points have been raised before and you and your mates have ignored them all persistently and are continuing to do so.
