UK: Clause 49 in this Brexit agreement could be very sticky for the Brexiteers.
The last sentence...
- "The United Kingdom remains committed to protecting North-South cooperation
and to its guarantee of avoiding a hard border. Any future arrangements must be
compatible with these overarching requirements. The United Kingdom's intention
is to achieve these objectives through the overall EU-UK relationship. Should
this not be possible, the United Kingdom will propose specific solutions to
address the unique circumstances of the island of Ireland. In the absence of
agreed solutions, the United Kingdom will maintain full alignment with those
rules of the Internal Market and the Customs Union which, now or in the future,
support North-South cooperation, the all island economy and the protection of
the 1998 Agreement."
