‘Hard border would incite violence’, warns the North’s former police chief
Northern Ireland’s former police chief has warned that there is no “logical” way to avoid a hard border, potentially manned by soldiers, if Britain leaves the EU without negotiating a deal in just two months’ time.
Hugh Orde issued the warning as Government sources separately claimed they were being held to ransom by landowners demanding massively inflated prices for that land that would be needed for new Dublin and Rosslare port customs check sites.
