2/ @theresa_may you cannot improve the Withdrawal Agreement but you could change the Political Declaration if you change your red lines.
You know the ones you decided by yourself and have led to your deal being rejected by Parliament

3/ @jeremycorbyn you say you won’t talk to @theresa_may til she rules out no deal.
That can only happen if Parliament instructs the revocation of the art 50 notice before 29 March 2019 absent a deal.
You should state that you support that instruction if required

7/ @jeremycorbyn you want a customs union yet object to state aid rules. A customs union will come with state aid obligations. Ask @GeorgePeretzQC

Stop being dishonest

8/ A customs union is not enough to stop a hard border - you need to be in the single market too.
If you both care about peace (and @jeremycorbyn you say you do) you should both champion this

9/ Given the incident in Derry last night you should both be prioritising peace.
You cannot achieve anything without peace yet both of you seem hellbent on destroying each other’s political party instead

10/ So either get round a table unconditionally with a view to finding a solution and agree that if you cannot agree both parties will agree to instruct Parliament to revoke the article 50 notice
11/ You can also agree to pass immediate legislation guaranteeing the status of EU citizens in the UK at no cost and with the same rights they have now
12/ So stop with your ill thought through redlines and start doing your fucking jobs.
13/ Tweet 1 should of course refer to 2019. 🤦♂️
