After Centuries Irish finally hold the whip hand.

For centuries London has bullied and lorded it over everyone on these British Isles.

Since 1066 when William the Conqueror arrived to give the Saxons a right good doing at Hastings and claim England for himself England has been, not to put to fine a point on it the class bully.

If truth be told whatever the Little Englanders and England wanted, or wants it has got, till now.

Brexit, however, is the game changer, after centuries of bullying and having to bend to the will of London the circumstances have finally changed.

It seems our Celtic cousins are about to show their bigger neighbour that it no longer holds sway in telling Ireland what to do.

The Irish Government have warned London that they have to provide a suitable solution to the border conundrum, otherwise Ireland will veto any trade talks and stop the Brexit negotiations in their tracks.
