Description
I was living the quiet life, watching the traffic and the sheep go by, and then Brexit came along, and I listened to people dismissing my importance. I could see the danger coming in the distance, like a cold front on the Tyrone skyline. So I thought, how can an invisible border be heard?
Ninety-seven years young, the Irish Border may be a late adopter of Twitter, but with almost 80k followers including Taoiseach Leo Varadkar, Piers Morgan and Alastair Campbell, the Border isn't so invisible anymore.
Ce que les critiques en disent
"Channelling the spirit of Monty Python, Father Ted and Oscar Wilde, [@BorderIrish] trolls the Brexit process with a tone that is whimsical, sometimes surreal and always pointed." (Guardian)
"An insightful spotlight on the vagaries, complexities and historical importance of perhaps the most intractable and misunderstood aspects of Brexit. Let’s face it, Christmas is not a time to wrestle with regulatory alignment, so you might as well follow in Spike Milligan’s footsteps and go the full Puckoon." (Financial Times)
"A very funny, humane and politically astute chronicle of a tragicomic episode...a brilliant act of ventriloquism." (Fintan O’Toole, Irish Times)
