Eire has decided that it doesn't want a hard border with the UK.

 

The EU has stated that a hard border in Ireland must be erected to protect the interests of the internal market.

 

People Before Profit. NO to an EU border in Ireland. NO to an EU Army.

You OK hun?

Shouldn't you be at school?

 

Anyway, wherever you have two different regulatory regimes you have a border that cannot be avoided. There is an easy way to aviod a border and that is to ensure the regulations remain in line.

Interesting use of the British,  post-imperialist name for the Republic of Ireland by someone claiming to be a socialist! 😱

In another bit of brexit news The National Crime Agency has found "no evidence" of criminal offences after allegations against Leave.EU and its founder Arron Banks.

Interestingly Farage’s only response to today’s Supreme Court decision has been to call for Dominic Cummings to resign or be sacked.

 

He is obviously still very butt-hurt about being excluded from the Vote Leave campaign! 😢

Article 4 of the Irish constitution, adopted in 1937 by the Eamon de Valera government, states that Eire is the name of the state. 

 

Eire is simply the name for the island of Ireland in the Irish language, it has nothing to do with British post-imperialism. I'm very surprised you didn't know that. Typical Blairite Tory-lite.

Let's get rid of all the borders.

 

What are the thoughts of Monk Bretton Civil Servants for Marxist, Faragist, Moggism on that?

Not the end of the road. The NCA's findings are restricted to specific allegations: it isn't the full get-out-of-jail-free card for Banks, that some will make it out to be 

 

For example, there's no finding concerning the actual origin of the funds. Yet.

I dont think there will be either:

 

“The NCA has not received any evidence to suggest that Mr Banks and his companies received funding from any third party to fund the loans, or that he acted as an agent on behalf of a third party."

 

Unless you mean something else?

Without massive thread deviation and in the pursuit of accuracy, it is worth pointing out that de Valera took the lead from the British 1938 Act which first used the term Ėire as a name for Ireland rather than the Gaelic goddess where the name originated. At the time, the British government refused to use the word ‘Ireland’ in any connection with the Irish nation even going to the length of insisting that the Irish Olympic team go under the name of Ėire at the 1948 Olympics in London.

 

Once again, I find it surprising that someone claiming to be a socialist is using and defending the use of a term so deeply rooted in British imperialism.

Nope, that is exactly it: the NCA has not received that evidence from the Electoral Commission, so has not made any findings about it. But that evidence is known to exist, Carol Cadwallar and other investigative journalists (Irish, US) have bits of it.

 

You're free to think what you want. I think we haven't heard the last of this by far, particularly as and when 'normal' politics resume post-Trump (impeachment proceedings in 3,2,1...) and post-Brexit crisis (irrespective of how that one plays out).
