Sir, – Bobby McDonagh can spin it as he likes (“Brexit would be as dead as the dodo if it hadn’t been nailed to a political perch”, Opinion & Analysis, February 11th), but in the real world there is no way that it can possibly be in the longer-term interests of Northern Ireland unionists for the region to remain permanently subject to continuously evolving EU laws while Britain gradually diverges from those laws.
The sooner that is properly understood in Dublin, London and Brussels, the sooner this relatively minor problem of managing a small volume of cross-border trade can be resolved. – Yours, etc,
DR COOPER,
