Michel Barnier already trowelling it on a bit thick with the EU family stuff... no doubt the Greeks feel that warm glow; and Mr Macron as he does his Eurozone reboot. Nord Stream II anyone?
That’s a goods border in Irish Sea and turning Northern Ireland into a regulatory enclave of the EU. /2
We saw what happened in Dec. DUP went ballistic and Sturgeon piled in.
So what are solutions? /3
I asked Barnier in presser if he could name a single country in the world that would subject itself to the jurisdiction of a foreign court. He could not. /4
An 80:20 fold by U.K., in EU favour. /5
Recalling as Barnier says that it’s the only operational text in the deal in Oct. /6

Let’s see. ENDS
