    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I expect you may not have meant it literally, but of course I did not vote in your referendum. Living as I do in another country, and being a citizen of it, the option was not open to me, so as that polite woman in the red beret, in the channel 4 news segment put it " Ireland lost , get over...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    There is a fundamental distinction. The remainers knew what they were voting for. The brexiteers didn't . they just hoped and wished . The situation as it pertains today is the the UK is actually still a member, and could still be a member in five years time. All the expectations as raised...

    Not street legal!

    Short answer people lie. They tell untruths and half truths . The real truth is more nuanced. Any vehicle with wheels can be street legal if one goes about taxing and getting official authorisation for it... But what is intended to be inferred by that comment was does it meet European...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    That your government has made what we would call a " cats paw" of it, I can agree with, however where I must disagree is that it could ever have been a success. I believe you are being over optimistic, and falling into the fallacy that " if we all work together, it will be all right on the...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    In the context of this discussion, it is forensic evidence. That which would in the fullness of time, appear in court. When the word policeman is used, that creates the context... It is not a scientific or a debating point.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Evidence is that which is presented in a court, not social media. Now I have no truck with the UK government I have no interest in supporting any party or faction , but any private action by a private citizen or a public person, which is not illegal ,even if hypocritical, should not be leaked...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Would a no deal ,and a hard border, be worse than a dishonest fudge? I really don't know the answer to that ... Its frying pan and fire. Would a deal where the UK steps back from a brink they all on their oneio walked up to be better for all.?, Including you in NI ? I have an answer for that.

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Civil servants, revenue, customs ,police tax inspectors even prison officers will come in contact with privileged information in the course of their duties. In Ireland, it would be an offense to publish this information. Its not only the right to privacy..an EU construct, but also an offense...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I am not going to make any further on this basically irrelevant sidebar topic other than to ask an obvious question. Why has that policeman not been prosecuted under the official secrets act or your equivalent title. ? . Information obtained by officials in the course of their duty would be...
