No-one's answering the question of a hard border in the Brexit debate.
That's from local Border Communities against Brexit campaigner Declan Fearon.
He was speaking before tomorrow's day of action along the border.
The group's calling for support by demonstrating at the Old Customs Post in Carrickcarnan, County Louth.
It claims it doesn't 'make sense' to have part of a Ireland in and the other part out of the EU.
Mr Fearon believes hardship for border cities like Newry, will follow a hard border.
He told Q Radio, "Whether it's Enda Kenny or it's Theresa May, it may not be their decision to make whether there's a hard border or not. That decision could possibly be made in Europe but it will have a serious effect on these border communities, right all the way up to Derry."
The day of action will take place tomorrow (Saturday) at 3pm.
Newry and Armagh MLA Danny Kennedy says the demonstration is a "pointless exercise".
He added the "referendum result stands, the outcome is known and we should all get on with it."
