This is a great piece! Just read it via instapundit and shared on evil FB (don’t worry, they’ll make sure no one sees it, I’m out of there as soon as I can focus and save my pix).
Yes, I think the incident with Ireland has rattled a lot of member countries. Ireland and Northern Ireland, which is part of the UK, were not supposed to having a “hard border” when the UK left the EU. This had been negotiated between all the parties.
And then the EU just announced that the two Irelands had to go back to having a “hard border,” with family members and everybody having to cross it like foreigners. And they didn’t even notify Dublin and London that they were doing this, but just announced that it was going into effect.
Incredible.
