THE KEY QUESTION at the nub of the fuss re: #Brexit, the #backstop & @BorderIrish is this:
What the heck has the European Union got to do with #peace here❓
Well, the ANSWER is, when all's said & done, pretty simple.
It’s about the British-Irish relationship.

This was acknowledged by the EU itself 35yrs ago in the Haagerup Report on resolving the conflict.
I'll explain this now by summarising my paper from Cooperation&Conflict @SAGECQPolitics.

111 people were killed in 1981.
In May 1981, @EuroParl_EN passed a Resolution recognising the EU had ‘no competence to make proposals for changes in the Constitution of N.Ireland’.
110 were killed in 1982.
The Troubles were raging. And there was little prospect of resolution.
