If we do leave The EU I fully expect Scotland to have another referendum and on 19:54 - Aug 9 with 1832 views | Darth_Koont | Hard to say. The government has been totally at sea over their own understanding of what a border means and totally incapable of guaranteeing the seamless trade the leavers promised. But putting aside the political nonsense ... In reality, it seems highly unlikely and impractical for the UK to actually leave the customs union (we've been heading towards that as the default since day one) so doubt there should be a practical issue.

Fine. I’d put up a big wall (trump style, though more like the Roman bloke did) to discourage border raids, plough up the road and rail links and any trade can go by sea. We have a trade agreement with Norway so the smoked salmon is covered and I gather the Japs make a decent scotch. Job done 😃 | | | |

I'd think there would be a hard border between England and Scotland as recent history isn't as nearly as bloody and violent as Northern Ireland's. I think Hollyrood may try and establish as frictionless border as possible between the North and the South but how likely that will be is another matter altogether. | |

Ultimately I think there will be a digital border between Eire and NI but if this is the case I cannot see Eddie Stobart being happy with a hard Scottish border. | | | |

Here's how it will work 1. Gun and watch towers on hadrian's wall. 2. Reinstate old pill boxes all around the English coast and arm them with anti aircraft battery. 3. Anything vessel acting suspiciously with 5 miles of the coast will be engaged. This way we can employ thousands back in the defence and arms industry and their supply chains, bingo! | | | |

People voted for Brexit and the current nutter wants a hard border. The only thing we can hope for is an alliance of other parties to defeat the Tories in an election before it's finalised. | |

Oh I see. I agree with Darth in that I don’t see the relevance of hard borders - unless you are at war - but if I’m right (which is not guaranteed) I thought he has said previously that the border in Ireland was an impossible situation what with The Belfast Agreement. It’s been a pretty poor three years hasn’t it. | | | |

I don't think even Boris wants a hard border but I wouldn't be surprised if he stumbles on it by accident. | |
