There will not be a Northern Ireland /Great Britain border.
Similarly they couldn't impose a Spain /Catalonia border.
The EU only wields fake power that is afforded to them by governments of actual countries. This fake power can be rebuked, overwritten or ignored if so desired. They only have the appearance of power, in reality they have none. The German Judicial system is only one example that has already shown this is the case.

I have spent long hours struggling to get my head around Brexit and find analogies that best describe it.
This comes close. Imagine where there is a scheme to build a 'whites only treehouse' at the top of a 200 foot tree. Tou also agree strict rules to ensure no non-white people can get in.
Now a few observations.
Yes you annoy non-white people with the rules and blatant discrimination they represent.
The thing is virtually no-one , black or white actually wants to climb the 200 feet to get to the treehouse.
It's totally impracticable, and dare I say a lunatic scheme whose only purpose appears to have been to 'annoy' black people without producing anything positive.
Those who actually supported it dont seem to care – so long as it continues to annoy the black population – and it does.
Its that stupid but your not allowed to say that because that is undemocratic because a majority voted for it!

@joewood5647
December 30, 2023 at 4:47 am
The logical answer is NO! Britain is not ready to be an independent country……….. this is because the people on this island don't understand they live on an island…….. this is shown in the system they have based their policies on a system of endless growth which needs an endless number of people to keep feeding it so we can keep on growing…… but you have a problem you live on an island but the people living on this island have no ability or the intelligence to grasp this reality.
you've only got to listen to these sites it's staring you in the face that the people of the UK have no ability to understand they live on an island.
otherwise they would not be embracing a system of endless growth the government wouldn't be allowing people to come onto this island you wouldn't be building endless homes for the endless people which is going to end up destroying this island and yourselves.
where is the proof you are over populated simple the congestion on your roads congestion is created because there's too many people in the country.
more evidence in the Second World War why did the Germans target our factories and our supply ships……… the factories were targeted to stop us making weapons….. the supply ships were targeted to stop food coming into this country. this is why if you ask your grandparents the government of the day told the people to dig up their flowerbeds and planned vegetables. it was a time when we destroyed over 97% of our natural countryside to try and grow food for the people who are living on this island at that time. which was about 40 million . it is why they had to eventually bring in food rationing……….. and that rationing lasted until 1954 that 14 years after the Second World War had finished because that's how long it took to build up the food supply again.
All of this is physical evidence that shows this country has too many people in it way back in 1930s 40s. so it was overpopulated then what are we now?
all that is showing you it is all physical evidence that this country is over populate and the trouble is it getting worse and worse why because the people of this country can't talk about the subject depopulation they don't have the emotional ability or the intelligence yet they claim to be intelligent people. Wake up you are not intelligent people look at the state of the island you live on and the problems you are infested with because you are not intelligent people you don't have intelligent people governing you otherwise this country would in a better state. instead of just getting worse and worse.

So…
The EU having common regulations about agriculture and food is a good thing that every constituent member should desire and like.
But the UK post-brexit having its own common regulations about agriculture and food is a bad thing that its constituents should dislike.

Overall, even if EU will be harmed on the short term, it will benefit it on the long term, as Britain has always been a headache in relation yo further integration. Brexit is already paying off, as analists say that the EU Next Generation recovery fund wouldn't have been possible, as Britain would have blocked it more that frugal countries have

Do I get a prize for correctly stating how many times the three word phrase "not ready yet" was mentioned in this video?
I think one word will suffice to sum up the UK's readiness status – "Omnishambles"
Having worked as one of the customs agents (I am retired now but used to work in International Freight Forwarding), I am conversant with the ins and outs of cross-border trade. Let's just say I am now planning the qtys and list of items going into my "Preppers Cupboard" so we can carry on more or less normally for approx six months whilst the inevitable chaos that will ensue from a No-Deal exit on 31st December this year, persists.

The really sad irony is that the UK has been a mini EU common market long before the EU common market came into existence. Yet the British are so two faced that instead of leading the way with what the EU should be, it's standing on its Sovereign rights. Sheesh. What a sad joke! If I was michel barnier I'd be laughing my socks off at the UK if only it wasn't so very sad.
