England is leaving the European Union. Ireland is in the European Union. Northern Ireland will soon leave the EU as part of BREXIT. But there’s no border between Ireland and Northern Ireland. Both were in the EU. No border was needed. After BREXIT the North will not be in the EU but Ireland will be. Every place that has two different countries has a solid border. Northern Ireland and Ireland won’t have a physical border. That’s the problem.
Maybe Ireland should leave the EU too. Problem solved.
Or return Northern Ireland to Ireland. Problem solved in a better way.
Ireland was partitioned in May 1921, when England implemented the Government of Ireland Act 1920 and created the state of Northern Ireland within the United Kingdom. Ireland was united before that. Ireland should be united again. England should leave Ireland to the Irish.
