Yet another wrinkle in the Irish border conundrum. It looked insoluble from the outset once Theresa May insisted we would be leaving both the single market and the customs union.  And it’s wholly our problem, nobody else created it and only we can solve it. The problem is looks insoluble right now and boosterism alone ain’t gonna swing it.
