"Mr President, so the radical House of Lords amendments were voted down today by the Westminster Brexiteers, and the Brexit wreck-it gang tell us to get over it: that it is the best thing since sliced bread!
Yet I have not met one business person, one young person, one farmer, one man, woman or child who has said to me, rubbing their hands in glee, ‘God, this divorce from the EU is going to be very good!’ But Ireland is told: ‘Get over it. Do not worry about it. It is going to be a frictionless border’ – whatever the hell that means, nobody knows.
And let me put the record straight to everybody here: no border, hard or soft, will be accepted by the people of Ireland. What British armoured cars and tanks and guns could not do in Ireland, 27 Member States will not be able to do.
So Theresa, your notion of a border, hard or soft, stick it where the sun does not shine, because you are not putting it in Ireland!"@en1
