The other bullet points can be resolved separately with the EU.
I see that Article XXIV would cover the GFA in terms of tariffs but not the single market or rules of origin. And what about cross border services? If we make other agreements, then aren't we slipping away from an Article XXIV Brexit and going back to some kind of withdrawal agreement?

I am more than willing to be surprised but I can't see the EU agreeing to Article XXIV without a number of other conditions in place which then means we're not in Article XXIV territory any more.
