On that Northern Ireland point, I'd just like to bring to the Remainers' attention what's really going on.

Given that neither the UK nor Ireland are going to erect a border (that's their policy), why are we bothered with a backstop? The EU are lying through their teeth that they wish to protect the GFA (which doesn't mention the border).

The issue is entirely based on Ireland's desire to continue to have free access to the UK market for their exports. I told you that Varadka was perfidious, so he is.
