Well, look at it this way. We could then just completely close the border with the Irish Republic. No need to bother with a Good Friday Agreement, customs problems, or the unity of Ireland. Just the lesser problem of building a 300 mile wall.---------------------"An estimated 1.17 million tonnes of conventional weapons and chemical weapons have been deposited in Beaufort Dyke. Workmen laying a British Gas pipeline to link Scotland and Northern Ireland reported detecting metallic objects on the sea bed close to the dump. They also reported underwater explosions, which prompted MAFF to order an investigation."Still, dumping the stuff saved us from a problem, I guess.
