Hank Green did a tier list of the tariff debacle and Northern Ireland got a mention.

Quotes are roughly from my notes:

“As far as trade is concerned, Northern Ireland is in both the United Kingdom and the European Union. … Has both a 10% and 20% tariff because of the no-deal Brexit. I’m gonna call that A-tier crazy.”

If this is true, it would be hard to adjust supply chains and get these here because no one can ship to NI because of new EU rules? Maybe they could fix that. That would be nice. TYSM.

“So now you know one place that would benefit from these tariffs. Everybody from Europe would be sending their stuff to Northern Ireland before exporting to the U.S.”

I feel like if that was possible, and we stood to benefit from EU links, the DUP would be trying to stop it. Have they?
