PM ‘set to agree Irish Sea border’

Seamus O Murchu: Like Foster thought it would be any other way. Step 1 in reunification nearly complete.

Mark Barnes: It won’t get passed. There will 100% be a no deal if this is the case.

Peter McAllister: Why so

anxious then?

Michael Black: Mark Barnes, did you even read the article? No deal equals customs border in

the Irish Sea by default.

Sean O Cibhleachain: And a General Election as the DUP will bring down the confidence and supply agreement with the Tories.

Michael Black: Either way, it can only end badly for the DUP.

J Dee Wells: DUP don’t have to bring down the Tories; all they have to do is join Labour and ensure Brexit vote doesn’t go

through parliament. That way, May will be replaced. I’d imagine a Brexiteer will take the PM’s job and we will be in an even bigger mess.

Sean O Cibhleachain: Somehow I don’t see the DUP joining Labour. That’s never going to happen. If they did, then the Tory Government will no longer have a majority and that will trigger an election. They can’t continue without the confidence and supply agreement.

Rob Carroll: Seamus O Murchu, the only way that’ll happen is by majority vote. It’s called democracy. It won’t happen because Leo is pulling strings in the background. When will you lot ever get it? There won’t be a united Ireland. Ever. So quit your gurning about it.

Sharon Ramsey: Wish the unionists would catch themselves on. What’s wrong with being Irish?

Harold Murphy: What’s wrong? Such a stupid question to ask a unionist.

Glenn Hall: Sharon Ramsey, what’s wrong with being British?

Rob Carroll: I’m a unionist and I wouldn’t vote DUP if my life depended on it.

Sharon Ramsey: Glenn Hall, in every country I have ever visited, when people ask you if you are Irish or British, the former answer is the one to guarantee welcoming smiles.
