    Since it would be an EU customs border exactly the same ways as every where else - it depends on where the farmhouse is located and in the event of it being located on the actual border, where the front door is. Failing that an agreement between the customs officers. This is not a new problem.

    And there have been much more complicated examples before now.

    No idea to be honest, I remember reading it in a article written by someone like Myers or Cusack that indo crowd years ago.
    It didn't work out well, is I think the point Fred is delicately hinting at. The person you're thinking of with a farm that straddles the Armagh./Louth border is indeed Slab Murphy. He's currently serving a custodial sentence for tax evasion.

    In fairness if you have six counties partitioned frkm a small island you're going to have ridiculous issues like that. I also think that the border isn't going to be as big a problem as the North's economy post Brexit.

    It is unlikely that a UK government of any hue is going to continue to fund NI to the extent the the combined subvention of the EU and UK currently give. Therefore NI will suffer, probably severely. The consequences of that can only be imagined, and a movement for some relief will begin to enter the local politics up there.
