That's not what I meant - as @JWestland says it would be up to Ireland too.
I can see it would be advantageous for the Brexiteers if Ireland was one homogeneous, non-UK country but is that really on the cards? Genuine question, I'm no Ireland expert.

Absolutely not - it's NI, it's always way more complicated than that. There's laughable logic in this 'NI voted Remain so they'll leave the UK to it' argument that we're seeing in the media. It's in no way comparable to Scotland. The idea that either side in NI would give up on centuries of shitting in their own beds rather than work to any accommodation that's equally good for all sides is daft. Loyal Orange Lodge marchers voting to join the priest-ridden Free State for the sake of cheaper petrol? Engrained mutual hatred is far stronger than any love for the EU.

I assume any referendum would be to the people of NI only?

NI is not a piece of your property for you to decide what to do with. That sort of thinking has been causing the odd local issue for the last 800 years.
