No-Deal Fear-Checker, No. 4
A no-deal scenario could end the Tripartite Agreement (TPA) and threaten next year’s Grand National. The TPA allows for horses to be move easily between the UK, France and Ireland, allowing for horses to compete across the three countries.
Whilst there are valid concerns over the future of the TPA, the Grand National was first run in 1839, long before the EU. Moreover, there is no obvious reason why the EU would stand in the way of a new agreement between the three countries, and those from countries outside of the TPA manage to compete without much additional difficulty on a regular basis.
