I find it amazing that, with all the discussion of the Irish border and the
"backstop", the Northern Irish vote was overwhelmingly for Remain, not Exit!

And the backstop thus far has resulted in either:
- NI staying in the EU trade area, thus leaving the Irish border open, but
creating a NI-UK border in the Irish sea
- NI being exactly like the rest of UI, resulting in a hard Irish border.
The link above was also surprising in the huge diversity of votes in *all*
the various regions. And NI *and* Scotland voted Remain!

This is nuts!
