If we go and strike our own trade deals, it is not possible to have frictionless trade with the EU. It doesn't matter what mood Michel Barnier or anyone else is in. Those are the rules of international trade - customs and regulatory compliance dictate this, it isn't a decision that can be made bilaterally
