When whoever you are negotiating with refuses to come to a deal without first getting an agreement from you to have your hands tied you would be a fool not to walk away or at least offer article 24 as an alternative.
If the backstop, as the EU have continually emphasised, is only temporary and they do not want to implement it then the 10yr article 24 option should cry out for acceptance.
If not, the backstop is not as temporary as we are told and designed purely to keep us in the EU indefinitely.
