Jeffrey Donaldson warns that we are heading for a no-deal Brexit

Gareth Murphy: Looks like we are heading for reunification.

Niamh Doyle Brady: I am from the South and want nothing to do with the sectarian, hate-filled cesspit that is NI.

Gareth Murphy: Niamh Doyle Brady, I’m from the South too. I’ll always support my fellow Irishmen and women in the North.

David Strain: Let’s see who is to blame when the EU forces the Free State to install a hard border.

Padraig Piarais Mac An Tsaoir: This is the captain of the Titanic, standing on the deck, delighted to be going down and laughing at the damage done to the iceberg.

Derek Maguidhir: It will be the death knell for the DUP and unionism if they force the UK into a position of future economic hurt through insisting on only supporting a hard Brexit. What they haven’t acknowledged is that, despite what they may think, there are other MPs that may decide to vote against their agenda. Ten versus the many.

Andrew Alexander Bowden: Mr Donaldson may be right. It appears the UK is heading for a no-deal Brexit. It won’t be good for the Republic, but it will be disastrous for the UK. Economic collapse. And the DUPes are partly responsible. CherryBee Willis: No problem, Mr Donaldson. Get direct rule implemented. No deal will leave us free to live without the shackles of the EU.

Robert Murphy: Makes me laugh when DUP politicians talk about the UK not having to pay a penny, yet their failed statelet is in receipt of a £13bn handout every year.

Kevo Meehan: When you are a big fish in a very small pond, you are used to getting your own way. In the outside world, it doesn’t work like that.

Stephen Robin Getty: No deal is what the D UP has always wanted.

John Jones: Best thing for the chances of an independent Scotland.

Kevin Connolly: It was obvious Brexit would result in the Union Flag being picked apart. English nationalism has thrown the UK under the bus.
