First of what may be a few tweets on The Good Friday Agreement, which I am re-reading. Once I have finished doing so, the score will be

Me 2 - 0 Raab.

To begin: Brexit & the complications over Irish trade seem incompatible with the highlighted bit.
This one concerns Tory policy rather than Brexit. Are we going to have two different human rights regimes? But I thought such divergence was totally unacceptable!
Now we have the British-Irish Council. Note the wide scope of its function & then see paragraph 5 & the explicit reference to the EU. The British seem to have decided to chuck in their EU membership without any reference to Ireland at all.
