@allknowing Partition never really does work does it, someone is always unhappy and it goes on from generation to generation. Look at Israel and Palestine, Northern Ireland and the Republic and the two Koreas.

@allknowing I think in the past there was some similar at the Gibraltar/Spain border, but it was a very long time ago. The border with Italy is very close to where I live, but there is not a daily ceremony. When the border patrol finishes its turn the others come and they go home.
