Letwin

Personally Carrie - I would still not be too bothered about a 'no deal' situation - even if there are now only 33 billion reasons to help foster that view ....as I do consider it far more important for us to break free of the  nascent Super-state sooner, rather than later.

The problem of course is as ever, the Ireland border issue' - and short of the NI leaving the UK and becoming a member of the EU, which would not be possible WITHOUT the majority consent of NI, this problem will always exist whilst the UK is not an EU member......and THAT is no reason for the UK to rejoin - but merely a factor which has to be addressed when out of the EU. Although the DUP have rejected that stance.....this proposed agreement presents a practical compromise - even if it does unnaturally have a 'controlled' border within the UK.

He's put the kibosh on the deal.
