It is backstop that is the main issue with the agreement.
I am not even convinced that would change much, let alone gain EU agreement

She needs to go back with a basic agreement about costs and in return get an agreement to prioritise trade EU/UK negotiations after March 29th.

There will have to be a hard NI border or let NI re-join the Republic, as there is no time to do anything else. Red lines are lovely, but what may be possible for the EU to agree could require their erasure.
