Naivety or plain stupidity to consider the EU would not take this approach.. Brexit has become David Moyes of a gun fight.

Except that article 184 clearly states that both sides shall use best endeavours, in good faith, to negotiate their future relationship. Demanding that the U.K. shall effectively give up its sovereignty over it’s waters and fish, oversee state subsidies and allow Eu law. This is neither best endeavours nor good faith. But hey, we shall see, it’s still a negotiation and the game is still afoot.....
 
I agree there should be a bespoke arrangement, for both NI and ROI. The U.K. have imposed no borders and have consistently said they would not do so. So who is it demanding a border ? The EU are using this issue to impose fishing access, European Law and State subsidy agreement with the U.K. ,all designed to reduce our sovereignty and keep close control. This is not acceptable to an Independent country which the U.K. now is. They could have agreed to an FTA just like Canada and there would be no issue, and arrangements would have undoubtably been made over fishing, but this was their negotiating strategy from the beginning. If the U.K. has to walk away from the negotiations in order to break free then so be it. France believes this to be a negotiating tactic, because that’s exactly what they would have done, I just hope the U.K. sticks to its guns for a change....
Just like Westminster Pete, there is no sense of responsibility at all in that post.

The issue only arose due to the U.K.Brexit vote and it is disingenuous (yet again) to attempt to disown it without formulating a workable solution for the good of the people and the region.

There is a considerable British population in NI who are relying on their govt not to just walk away and leave it for the EU to sort out.
