Interested in the fuss about #FarageOnLBC, #TrumpOnLBC and #borisdeal?
I need to thank Trump. A sentence I didn't think I'd ever write.
#borisdeal is being sold as a great deal.
It's horribly flawed. #corruptTory
Thanks to Trump you want to know why -#flipaTory story again.

Explaining dense legal document - Twitter nightmare, so a map⏬
LHS - Need that for a US FTA
RHS - Need that for an EU FTA
Will show you just the clauses that are fundamentally incompatible
What about clauses that try to do both in the same clause?
Drowning in the Atlantic...

So I thought I'd do something like this - show you each clause, where it was, why it was there, and how it creates problems Trump might know about.
Something like this.
Make sense?

Except - "Dog's Brexit", a mess.
The point I want to make - backstop (and NI) is a red herring, to cover the unsolvable gap between US and EU trade.
So Boris has taken one problem and by splitting it and hiding it, he's made 10 more.
And he needlessly fed NI to his new beast

Which is where Mr Trump helped again. How did they explain this to him sufficiently, that he mentioned it?
I figure they did it this, and even Trump spotted there was irreconcilable stuff.
When he worries about the US FTA. It's real, not a lie.
That's the real exclusive Nige!

So TLDR?
Boris solved 1 backstop by making 10 of them.
He sold Northern Ireland without needing to
He got worse terms than TM
On 5% of TM's agreement
This is not a man I wish to give more control to.
