      Wait, I'm a little confused by this: https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2019/jan/03/police-reinforcements-for-northern-ireland-in-case-of-no-deal-brexit-1000-officers-training-trouble-hard-border … Is this saying that, should the UK hard Brexit, that they'd.....close off Northern Ireland from the rest of Ireland? That seems like a *very* bad idea.

      Oh man, I hadn't even considered North Ireland's role in the Brexit debacle: https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-northern-ireland-politics-44615404 … That's a full rundown of the issue, and it could mean a breaking of the Good Friday peace agreement https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Good_Friday_Agreement …

      The interesting part of the Good Friday agreement is that N.Ireland remains part of the UK *until* a majority of the people of N.Ireland vote to not be. Yanking N.Ireland out of the EU could easily be the catalyst of a referendum that removes them from the UK.

      The implication of N.Ireland voting to leave the UK and join the Republic of Ireland (or, just be their own country) could then domino to Scotland and other parts. I know Scotland has already been pro-EU and threatened to leave, so having N.Ireland do it could help.

      And, the Good Friday agreement established an interesting 2 point agreement: Most people in N.Ireland want to be in the UK. But, a significant amount want to join Ireland. Thus, why it's left up to the people through democracy as to where they belong.

      So, given that this basically just happened to the UK with Brexit ("We vote to leave the EU!") it'd be *crazy* hard for the UK to argue that the people of N.Ireland couldn't also vote to leave the UK. Shall we call N.Ireland leaving the UK..NIxit? Ohhhh, that's a good pun.

      Replying to @Kamuela

      Yes, see before I was like "meh, just let the UK leave already." I thought they were a cleanly separate entity so why bother keeping them in the EU. NOW I understand that N.Ireland adds a massive complication to that which explains the delay.
