What will happen to the Irish border if there is no deal?

[Chocolatepeanuts]

Apologies if this has been dealt with on another thread I have just finished reading the one on the backstop.
If all efforts fail and the UK leave the EU with no deal what will happen at the border? Will TM and the British government be able to impose what they like regardless of backstops or the GFA?

The UK border in Ireland. Not the Irish border.

Ok the border between Ireland and NI.

Your guess is as good as anyone else's Chocolate.

Why is it the UK border and not the Irish border, surely it’s either and both? The UK border if you’re in Ireland, the Irish border if you’re in the UK and the UK\Irish border if you’re in another country altogether.

Interesting question: what outcome shall we expect, when a government, which has signed up to an international agreement, the Good Friday Agreement, passes laws, or amendments to laws, in parliament which are in contravention of that agreement.

What, indeed, are we to expect?

Maybe because it's a sensitive subject Black and wording is important.

Well for clarity I'm from the north of Ireland, maybe if i was from elsewhere in the UK i may have called it something different. Anyway being from here I'm well used to there being many names for one thing! I'm sure everyone reading this knows exactly where I'm talking about and if that's what AWIAAF wants to call it thats fine with me.

Chocolate.

I'm from Ireland and know it as "The Border". Because there is only one.

Why is it the UK border and not the Irish border

Because it’s a U.K. imposed border.

It's odd that there are preparations in place for Dover but I don't see anything about the land border or anything about UK-Ireland shipping routes.

I just raised that question on the backstop thread. I can't see how not having an Irish Sea border is feasible, whatever the ERG has twisted May's arm to agree to. If the backstop comes into force, it will still be needed for RoI/GB traffic.

not having an Irish Sea border is feasible

And we also can't imagine the DUP, who hold the balance of power in Westminster, agreeing to that.

It really isn't immediately obvious how the particular circle will be squared.

I think if the UK crashes out, Ireland will unfortunately have no choice but to put in place a hard border

Fuck knows what the UK will do.

It can't be right that the Republic of Ireland is inconvenienced by cost if a hard border is required.

required .... 'in order for the UK to ¡take back control of their orders'. Hollow laugh

Just saw this apile it gets worse and worse

We are fucked.

It's horrific.
