The border is a loophole now?
Wow. Might as well just throw the Good Friday Agreement out altogether.
Tell me, do friends and family isolate and fill out forms and get tests every time they cross the border?
Thought not.
We either have a common travel area or we don't. I think we do. So do the UK. The Irish government wants to bin that. They shouldn't be allowed.
