EU Brexit Proposal Revives Irish Border Fight

WSJ Original article ›
LyrArc Article Gist
A EU draft document that details the terms for Brexit and says Northern Ireland would remain part of the EU customs union has revived the debate on the future of Northern Ireland under Brexit. This remains an untackled issue in the negotiations. A hard border with Ireland would threaten a fragile peace in Northern Ireland. This brings up the thorny issues in the Brexit vote that were not considered during the referendum for a simple "yes" or "no" vote. Labor party favors the EU customs union membership and the Conservative hardliners now have to face up to the problems that were not really addressed in the referendum vote. Theresa May's thin majority in parliament also place her in a difficult situation now that the Labor party has supported the EU customs union.
