It's not unsolvable, there are detailed proposals for how to solve it and after announcing loudly they would never work, the EU recently changed its mind and announced they'd already started preparations for it.

The only reason the Irish border is being described as "unsolvable" is because that suits the agenda of people who want the referendum to be ignored (as in Europe they always are).



Any simple links / explanations on these proposals to square the circle? I appreciated Al-Khwarizmi's simple explanation of the backstop.


Search for "france interbrexit" to see some detailed information from French customs on how they're solving it for Calais.

As for the others the key word is MaxFAC, I believe, but I looked at the French "smart border" arrangements more closely than the Irish proposals.
