    The DUP were alarmed by meeting in Brussels with @MichelBarnier who reportedly said Great Britain entitled to sign traditional free trade deal with the EU. But NI would have to be separate and subject to rules of single market to avoid no hard border between NI + Irish Republic

        How to enjoy frictionless trade. A colouring job. 1. EU single market/customs union: Use same colour for 1-27 2. No border down the Irish Sea: Use same colour for 28a and 28b 3. No hard border in Ireland: Use same colour for 27 and 28b. 4. Discuss. #Brexitpic.twitter.com/bqeoYxkD8u

        I believe the Chequers solution is to use two colours that are so similar for steps 1 and 2 that you can't see the join and step 3 becomes irrelevant.

        What would actually happen next if there is no deal and everyone refuses to build a hard border between ROI/NI?
