NI1/2

Brought to tears listening to the excellent @JanCarson7280 on #Brexit #stateofthenation on Radio 4. You must make time to listen #FBPE.

Jan's whole stance is entirely dialogue, listening, mediation. She's therefore too diplomatic to point out the underlying tragedy.
NI2/3
NI is the best example for #Brexit to learn from. Years of bitter sectarian conflict with no chance of solution, finally resolved by a people who understand political dialogue and bridge-building better than anyone in the UK.

They are our experts. Our trump card (no pun)
NI3/3
So we
Disenfranchise them
Impose messy solutions on them that they didn't vote for
Learn nothing from how they dealt with a worse problem
Don't call on their experts
And even undermine their Peace
The final irony ignore their success, instead export sectarianism for #Brexit
