I See Amaq Are Still On Twitter.
Well someone's finally explained Boris' Brexit deal to the Labour Party.

Really slowly. And with lots and lots of pictures.
It's exactly the same as Theresa May's deal. Only with two small changes to the Backstop;
It creates a border down the Irish Sea. Which, if you're concerned about Regulatory Divergence, makes it worse.
However it allows the Northern Irish Assembly to unilaterally scrap the Backstop in its entirety.
So the DUP can tear down the border anytime they like. With the support of Sinn Fein.
As to whether that makes Boris' deal better or worse?
Like most Brexiteers & Remainers I'm not actually knowledgeable or interested enough in Northern Irish issues to make a ruling.
Oh, and if you were hoping this would end in a song.
I'm sorry.
Both Boris Johnson & Jeremy Corbyn have been doing what all British MP's do best.
Sucking all the joy, creativity and wealth from life.
