The UK is not in Schengen, so it has control over its borders already.
If it doesn't use that, it's not the EU's fault.


Only in respect of non-EU nationals - the UK has no border controls
for EU nationals.


Yes it does, even if most are entitled to entry, they are still subject to
control.

Across the Irish land frontier, no-one is subject to control of course. The
British just don't understand land frontiers. The ability to control flows
across them is distinctly limited, unless you go to Iron Curtain lengths.
