Boris Johnson's government has admitted it will erect Brexit border control posts for goods crossing the Irish Sea

Narrow Water Point and Warrenpoint Port seen from from Flagstaff Viewpoint on the hills outside Newry where the Newry River flows out to Carlingford Lough, the UK and Republic of Ireland share a border through the lough.Boris Johnson's government has admitted that it will erect Brexit border posts with Northern Ireland after the prime minister previously insisted it would never do so.

However, Declan Kearney, a junior minister in Northern Ireland, revealed on Wednesday that Johnson's UK government had now confirmed that it would erect border inspection posts at three ports in Northern Ireland., Kearney said: "The sum total of that, and without breaching executive confidentiality... [is that the] British government has confirmed it will urgently put in place detailed plans with the executive, which does include the physical posts at ports of entry.

A Cabinet Office spokesman told the Guardian: "We have always been clear that there will be requirements for live animals and agri-food, building on what already happens at ports like Larne and Belfast. He added: "In January I said that this would be a herculean task to get everything in place on time. It has only gotten harder since then."that time was running out for the UK to implement the new systems needed to carry out new checks, warning "time is short" and that UK reassurances "urgently need to be followed up by tangible measures."

Why are you surprised? Johnson lied when he said that there wouldn’t be one! It was obvious that the deal he accepted had been rejected by May because it would require custom checks for goods crossing the Irish Sea!

But, but, but... he said that document was 'complete nonsense'?!? Did he.... LIE?!

AdamBienkov The UK has become a provincial cage of borders, barriers, locks and keys, utterly detached from the present social and economic reality. Is Johnson intending to create a zoo out of the British Isles? BrexitReality borders TradeBarriers

You mean Johnson lied again? I'm shocked.
