That the UK can trigger arbitration if it feels the EU isn’t doing enough to find the mysterious “alternative arrangements” for the Border sounds odd.
Surely it is up to the party changing things, ie the UK, to solve problems of its making, not others. – Yours, etc,

PAUL DELANEY,
Dalkey,
Co Dublin.
Sir, – It would be unspeakable to suggest another referendum on Brexit, but you can have as many votes as you like until you get the answer you want in the House of Commons. Funny old world. – Yours, etc,
ALEC QUINN,
Limerick.
