I find it amazing that, with all the discussion of the Irish border and the "backstop", the Northern Irish vote was overwhelmingly for Remain, not Exit! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Results_of_the_2016_United_Kingdom_European_Union_membership_referendum#Northern_Ireland
And the backstop thus far has resulted in either: - NI staying in the EU trade area, thus leaving the Irish border open, but creating a NI-UK border in the Irish sea - NI being exactly like the rest of UI, resulting in a hard Irish border. The link above was also surprising in the huge diversity of votes in *all* the various regions. And NI *and* Scotland voted Remain! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Results_of_the_2016_United_Kingdom_European_Union_membership_referendum#Results_by_United_Kingdom_constituent_countries This is nuts! -- Owen
