She could have the grace and the cop-on to acknowledge the problems Brexit will create for the north and it is her job to help in trying to solve some of them.

To give a few examples. Derry is faced with the prospect of an important international border wrapping around its suburbs. The agricultural sector is closely integrated, especially the milk sector where dairies freely collect milk from farmers on either side of the border. Prize money at Down Royal and Downpatrick is denominated in euros because racing in the north is funded and administered from the south. Hundreds of thousands hold both passports, soon to be joined by many thousands more; for many people questions of identity and nationality are fluid and barriers between the two traditions are coming down (quite literally).

And now this happens. The worst thing of all is that, as the debate on here illustrated (Northern Ireland barely got a mention), nobody in England, including the woman in charge, seems to give a toss about it.
