        You know if the government said before we voted "Just to warn you, if you do vote to leave we have no idea what to do" I think results would have been different. But yet you feed us utter utter bullshit. You're useless & we have no one to turn to.

        Dear BBC it's a British Border in Ireland that was imposed upon us. Stop referring it as an Irish border. Ireland is Ireland North,South,East & West.

        Since this is news aimed for the UK, it would make sense to refer to it as the Irish border. Calling it the British Border could mean Ireland, Spain or France.

        I have a better idea, how about cancelling it altogether? Most U.K. voters were not well informed when they voted for it.

        I agree. I can’t stand her. No one else could do a better job though as Brexit just isn’t deliverable. Not without making the country weaker on all fronts.

        May's willingness to extend the transition period to 3years, means she's hoping the same will apply to her premiership.

        By the time any deal is done we will have had another general election and it will be dragged out even further.
