It is a shame

She's done her best with the situation at hand. She needs to convince them all the backstop and framework she has drafted is temporary and ideally when transition period ends.

Otherwise as much as people dislike him. JRM is telling the truth.

At the moment the UK can decide to withdraw from the EU, customs union and single market. If this agreement passes it will then be subject to mutual consent from both the UK and the EU when we eventually do leave.

Ultimately were just pushing the decision further down the line and in turn allowing the EU to also dictacte how and when we leave.

Could also mean we are then open to being blackmailed for a larger divorce bill if the EU feel that we will drop tarrifs and taxes in an attempt to become more competitive.

I personally think TM is a terrible prime minister and after the clusterf**k she made at the home office, should never been given the opportunity to become PM
