DUP claims there is a ‘third way’ on Brexit

-

Proinsias Mac An

Bheatha: Arlene is right. The third way is a united Ireland.

Jake Donnelly: Anodeal Brexit will ensure that. Their greed and selfishnes­s have walked them into a unity vote. And the best part is their supporters think no-deal is a great thing.

Jeff Scott: Funny how Sinn Fein has done nothing and said nothing. EU mouthpiece­s do maximum

damage to the UK.

Proinsias Mac An Bheatha: It’s fascinatin­g to watch this car-crash Brexit. Some 44% of UK exports go to the EU and 11.8% of Irish exports go to the UK. Who will suffer the most with hard Brexit and WTO rules?

Jake Donnelly: The DUP has people believing the Union is more important than putting food on the table. But folk will find out the hard way. Pity others will suffer as a result of their stupidity, though.

Charles Williams: No doubt there is. And a fourth, fifth and sixth way. That’s the whole problem with Brexit — so many people have so many versions of it that it’s almost impossible to come to a majority consensus on how (or if) it should be implemente­d.

Chris Loonytoon: It’s one thing to say there’s a third way. It’s a lot more helpful to actually offer up this solution, instead of just claiming it exists. If things are so straightfo­rward, they’ll have no problem letting the rest of us in on the plan. That is, of course, if they actually have one.

Dolores Ni Gearailt: They like forward-thinking but couldn’t see the stupidity of Brexit.

Edward Lafferty: There is no third way, there is only damage or destroy the economy and weaken the Union, or no Brexit. It is this quest for the mythical third way (or having your cake and eating it) that has led the Tories to drive the UK into an unwinnable position.

Ian Allen: Yeah. It’s called Remaining.

Rob Pepper: Demanding a better deal, but no explanatio­n of what that deal actually looks like or, more importantl­y, how to achieve it and within the timescale.
