So, what should the UK government do? How do you make a "complete break" and not break the Good Friday Agreement? You seem to know what everyone has been missing in the last six years.

So Brian, here is your challenge. Now remember your Brexiters leaders made you three promises. (i) To leave the Single Market and Customs Union; (ii) that there would be no border between NI and GB; (iii) that there would be border between NI and Ireland (thereby honouring the 1998 Good Friday Agreement). Please explain how the UK can have all three .

So Stephen, go on, how would you resolve the impasse? Remember, there were three promises the Brexiteers made to you: (i) To leave the Single Market and Customs Union; (ii) that there would be no border between NI and GB; (iii) that there would be border between NI and Ireland (thereby honouring the 1998 GFA). How do you do so keeping all three and getting your unicorn Brexit? .............................

@richardgallagher4880 You mean the promises are nonsense? You mean that they mean nothing to you? People with you attitude should not be taken seriously. You claim those that oppose you as "anti-democratic" but you do have a democratic heart or head.

@stephenrichards5386 I am defending against the tyranny of the majority and not arguing "Brussels is good" (although it is a beautiful city).

@stephenrichards5386 I'm not sure WTO is the answer. Not because I am "anti-democratic" or the "economic implications", simply isn't the WTO another supranational organisation that erodes our sovereignty ? For example, on the issue of customs checks, what is the difference between WTO rules and the EU-UK trade deal legislation on rules of origin? Answer: No difference ! There is a need for customs checks on products. More importantly than those reasons it that reneges on the promise that there would be border between NI and Ireland (thereby honouring the 1998 GFA), thereby tearing up the agreement, certainly no trade deal with the US, and it might possibly if done badly lead to a trade war with EU. Is there a government that is ready to suffer the economic and political fallout from such a move? If anyone, Truss could have been the PM to do it! So instead of the breaking the promise (ii), it breaks promise (iii). But you seem to consider the Good Friday Agreement as a tool by the EU. Well remember the GFA was an international legal agreement underwritten by the EU and chaired by the US, so neither of these stakeholders are going to disregard it now, are they?

@stephenrichards5386 Basically the "tyranny of the majority" is how democracy works in England and its imposition on the rest of the UK. What John Stuart Mill called the "tyranny of the majority", can be found in On Liberty : There is a limit to the legitimate interference of collective opinion with individual independence: and to find that limit, and maintain it against encroachment, is as indispensable to a good condition of human affairs, as protection against political despotism .

@dogbreaththe3rd851 Don't even pretend you ever considered Northern Ireland when you reactionary Little Englanders wanted your Albion free of foreigners and to hell with the rest.

@richardgallagher4880 A couple of universities say I can read, but I have no idea what n s I ger is. And unless I am otherwise mistaken it has been 7 years since the 2016 Referendum and not 17.And how did this "remainer ding" lose a debate ? It's high time to get a grip on reality.

@richardgallagher4880 No idea.

@richardgallagher4880 I don't hear any solutions, only mockery from the sidelines. That is you role afterall, `be cheerleaders for the charlatans and the inept.

@richardgallagher4880 At least some coherence would go amiss. What is your point?
