To answer the OP. We'll break open a bottle of bubbly and celebrate quietly. Just as the British people quietly voted to leave the EU; quietly stuck to their guns; quietly saw through the false scaremongering and quietly voted again and again until their voices could be heard above all the shouting hysteria and powerful 'naysayers'.

I can only quote Sir Robert Walpole, first Earl of Orford, and also considered to be the first British Prime Minister "They now ring the bells, but they will soon wring their hands".
Incidentally another rather appropriate quote from him is "The very idea of true patriotism is lost, and the term has been prostituted to the very worst of purposes. "
And indeed the RoI can make their own decisions re checks & borders. I repeat, no one, save yourself, has suggested the EU would just let a member state decide how borders with non EU countries will work. It's up to individual countries to refuse to comply and stand up to them.
