What is the Labour position on the Irish border question?
Thursday, 19th July 2018
• THERE are currently three versions of Brexit up for consideration. The Chequers Brexit which appears to have establishment approval in England and in the EU. This version claims to retain the invisibility of the border between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland.
The Boris Brexit which would lead to a hard border between Northern Ireland and the Republic. And Lexit sponsored by the independent left. What is still lacking is the Labour Party version of Brexit, detailing what effect it would have on Ireland’s internal border.
The Celtic League looks forward to shadow prime minister Jeremy Corbyn, shadow foreign secretary Emily Thornberry and shadow Brexit secretary Sir Keir Starmer letting us all know just what the Labour Party’s definitive stance is on Brexit and what input Labour proposes to seek from the voters of Northern Ireland.
