[QUOTE="Danllan, post: 5900912, member: 8735"] Ah, but we have open divisions you in Europe are a 'united front', right? ;) Less sarcastically, :D, there was a very interesting comment made by Damian Green (TM's best chum) on the BBC R4 World at One, he mentioned that the 'backstop' could be replaced by a so-called 'frontstop'. Meaning that the generally preferred position at the end of negotiations would be the default situation unless a mutually agreed alternative was reached. That sounds odd at first, but it may be a very clever way through, since it would guarantee the UK leaving the SM and CU and ECJ jurisdiction and not having any internal border and would, at the same time, remove the Irish-perceived risk of a 'hard' border. It would also focus minds on both sides as to the best way of facilitating all this. An interesting comment from an EU spokesman just now, No Deal guarantees a 'hard' border... Hmm... nearly right. It guarantees a 'hard' border on the EU / Irish side, [U]we[/U] have said that there won't be one. (y) [/QUOTE]
