Ok I'd like to end this meme once and for all
The Brexit will not lead to Irish reunification. Northern Ireland is massively subsidised by the British government and the Republic could not hope to match that. A large amount of the jobs in NI are public sector which would also obviously go. The protestant community was split 50-50 in this referendum but will be 95% united in support of remaining. Even a drastic increase of support amongst the Catholic community for reunification would not be enough to overturn the demographic advantage of the Protestant community. Check back in 15 years when maybe the demographics have shifted somewhat but for now Northern Ireland is going nowhere.

I don't want to do that, I think they should be mass deported to Britain. Sick of these squatters.

We'll be buddies now. Did you see our flag? That orange bit is you right there. It's pretty.
Polls I've seen show that even most Catholics want to stay a part of the UK.
hmmm ah yes

Economic benefits. The IRA purposely wrecked Northern Ireland for 30 years specifically so it wouldn't be economically viable for the UK to hold it, failing to realize the UK didn't care if it was economically viable and they'd just pour money into the place indefinitely.
The main argument against reunification has always been that the Irish Republic wouldn't be able to afford it, but now England might not be able to afford it either.
Now Northern Ireland won't get any EU funding (which was very important), the British economy could potentially collapse and now it's just them and a weaker uncaring English government.
If Scotland leaves most of them won't feel any connection to the UK anymore. Plus Scotland leaving or even holding a referendum will damage the UK's overall economy which will make things in NI worse.
Exciting times.
