"but it was leaked and of course they had access to it!"
Can you prove this Keith?
They had the assurances of Europe that no deal would be made without that was detrimental to the Irish people - an assurance that the EU would protect its own members.
That was public knowledge, the details of the proposals were not.
You are inventing things Keith and you are doing so to protect the only people who were going to lose out if the deapl went through - the DUP.
It's all a little irrelevant anyway - what does it matter who leaked the proposals - it was the DUP who have scuppered them and set Brexit back, while at the same time making the Government look both ruthless and extremely inept, for which we should all be grateful because that is exactly what they have been from day one.
I have no doubt that, following this circus that stands to run longer than 'The Mousetrap', should a new referendum be called, Brexit wouldn't stand a chance.
I also have little doubt that, given the fact that what the DUP is demanding for the Six Counties has been shown to be in direct conflict with the interest of the people living there, that they wouldn't stand a snowball's chance in hell of maintaining a majority.
Stop defending sectarian terrorism Keith
