Really, what makes you say that?

English is not my first language, but I personally thought the Irish border would've also been important in the Brexit referendum, considering you had a 30 year pseudo-civil war over that same border.

But the British people straight up ignored that little issue and here we are today at the precipice of a trade war and breaking up the Good Friday Agreement.

Compared to terrorism and civil war I would think the inconvenience of a Scottish border is an inconsequential problem.
