The village of Pettigoe is divided by the Irish border, with one side in Northern Ireland and the other in the Irish Republic. Since the end of The Troubles both sides have re-integrated, but there are concerns that Brexit could cause new division, since there’s still no agreement on how the UK and Ireland will manage if they have different trade policies either side of the border.

Ireland's border is the sea.

The Sea? Don't be silly. Any EU resident is free to live and work in Ireland. You don't control your own borders - the EU does. Ireland threw away it's independence in 1975.

It's not the Irish border, it's a British border in Ireland.

There is no Irish border. It is the EU's border. Ireland threw away it's independence in 1975. Occupation on the left bank - freedom on the right bank.

Why is it an Irish border is it divides a village.

It’s a county boundary to begin with. Fermanagh Donegal. The only ones that seem to get worked up are the media and career politicians. Most people just get on with it. Pay in euros in pettigo Pay inbounds in Kesh. Psni one side. Garda the other. No big deal at the end of the day. Most people get on and want to get on with each other. Only these journalists want to come in and hype things up and then go away again.
