  • The Good Friday Agreement
  • Money already committed in the current EU budget
  • Arbitration in the matters above

Yes, we could go to the EU proposing Article XXIV but you can be pretty sure they will ask about the above and boom, we are back where we started.

Remember 'nothing is agreed until everything is agreed'?
The fact that we don't need a solution to the Good Friday Agreement border issue for 10 years is surely a bonus.

The other bullet points can be resolved separately with the EU.
