When will the BBC report what we’ve been reporting for years?

Brexit Facts4EU.org Summary

Border Between Northern Ireland & The Republic

What the heads of Irish Customs said :-

“We have absolutely no plans for anything along the Border at this stage”

“There would not be customs stops on the Border such as applied until 1992 [before the Good Friday Agreement] as described by the Deputy.”

  • No hard border required, say Irish Customs
  • No customs posts on the border
  • Customs to be handled electronically, as largely done at present, and this is now EU policy
  • Only 2% of goods are currently checked and this won’t change
  • Irish goods can continue to pass through UK to continent using ‘common transit arrangement’
  • EU prevents negotiations or discussions taking place between the two sides who can solve the issue

Not only do the Irish Customs believe there effectively isn’t an Irish border problem, they confirm that the British and Irish customs organisations have been prevented by the EU Commission from meeting to agree the new arrangements.

In other words, there are clear solutions to the border issues which both sides agree upon, which:-

  • Do not require a hard border
  • Do not require Northern Ireland to stay in a Customs Union with the EU
  • Do not require Mrs May’s ‘Backstop’ in the Withdrawal Agreement
  • And which could be implemented if needed

Observations

In the next article we present the testimonies of the Irish customs heads to the Irish parliamentary committee in 2017. We recommend reading this.

In particular we recommend that the British broadcasters - particular the BBC – start to educate themselves and report as they should.
