Theresa may has said many times we are leaving the customs union and the single market and that's what 17.4 million people voted for it would be a grave mistake to backtrack on that now and she knows it so as much as remainers are constantly hoping for this "soft" brexit the rules don't allow for anything but hard brexit. If the EU can change their rules allowing anything other then hard brexit then can clearly change other rules if it suits them which means they are using the ireland issue as an excuse and we should tell them to sod off. Agreement could be reached on a workable solution but the EU needs to engage rather then just constantly shooting everything down i gaurantee if the UK said next monday "these negotiations are not working for us we are tired of the EU intransigence so we are out come march 2019 we see where things fall" there would be a rapid chane in the EU's negotiating position and likely a replacement of the EU's chief negotiator.
