Well, all of Europe except Malta, the Balearics, Sardinia, Crete, Cyprus, Dodecanese, the Hebrides, Orkney, Shetland, the Friesian islands, ....

I agree that there might have been some sense in using the boring machines on another project. (Just not this one!)

And which bit of Wales? Holyhead to Kilkeel? Abergwaun to Wexford (of course, that wouldn't fit the NI bit)?

That boring machine wouldn’t work. It’s too busy on here.

And yes. The Wexford link up would be the most sensible.

You keep playing the fool and at some point we will be forced to take you at your word.

Too long.

Too deep. (Depth exceeding 275 m in the Beaufort’s Dyke in the North Channel.)
.

Then we should make a floating pontoon.

We can reuse all the single use plastic water bottles to float the ******.

Simples.

Remember, where there’s a will there’s a way.

No, but they are both in the EU, I thought that even with your restricted mental agility you would have known that. Do you think the EU would help to finance a connection between a third country and an EU member?
It would be a UK project, in the UK and the shortest crossing used to keep costs down.

Wind your neck in laddie, your use of "we" suggests you speak for others. You don't.
At least I occasionally play at being a fool, for you, no playing is required.

So major infrastructure only gets built if both countries are in the EU?

Switzerland’s tunnels say hi.

Yes, I do. The Eurasia Tunnel:

The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) is supplying a finance package worth US$150 million. Other components of the US$1.245 billion financing package include a $350 million loan from the European Investment Bank (EIB) and financing and guarantees from Export-Import Bank of Korea and K-Sure, also with participation from Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, Standard Chartered, Mizuho Bank, Türkiye İş Bankası, Garanti Bank and Yapı ve Kredi Bankası. A hedging facility for the transaction is provided by some of the lenders as well as Deutsche Bank.

There are also some very nasty things lurking in Beaufort's Dyke.

Just because she fancies someone of the same gender doesn’t make her a monster.

This is the 21st century. Lesbians have an equal footing unless they live in Northern Ireland.

I should have been more specific and said a third country that had been an EU member and then left with no continuing arrangements in place.

So none then.

No country has ever left the EU in the history of the EU.

You were basically saying nothing.
