"Mr President, war is a terrible thing, and my generation went to war over discrimination, inequality, lack of civil rights and the denial of human rights. The disastrous partition of Ireland divided people and communities, and there can be no going back to this. Hard or soft borders, the people living in border communities in Ireland will not stand for it, so frictionless or electronic borders do not reassure anyone. The damage that will be done to the peace process in Ireland is immeasurable. Any sort of border that will damage the Good Friday Agreement will tell people that the political process failed. My generation will do everything it can to make sure that the next generation never has to endure what we had to. The EU has a political, legal, and moral duty to help us ensure that the next generation is not faced with hard borders or hardship. Therefore, the Council and the Commission, in their Brexit negotiations, must protect the people of Ireland – north, south, east and west – from this English Brexit madness."@en1
