Ah gotcha now.
Hm, ok issues then:
1 - no FOM, what does that mean for the NI/ROI border? I know the UK/ROI have long standing agreements, but in theory EU furrin's could then get in the UK with ROI...
2 - Does the timeline fit? Only about a year left...
3 - Is there enough good will after all the shambles?
4 - It is still worth it...losing the Euro clearings, medicine agency etc. is a big deal
^ Few more points. It notes financial services needs a special agreement on top.
And it leaves all the issues EU nationals have to go through atm on rights etc. as there's no FOM.
JWestland-
re 4. I strongly suspect that they've ballsed this up anyway. London had a lot going for it for clearing / financial services, one of which things being that there was a mature, (strong and...) stable government which wouldn't do stupid things to interrupt companies businesses. Whether that's good or bad, you decide.
However, even if they cancelled Brexit tomorrow, they've lost that reputation - and they'll never get it back. I imagine there'd be a lot of CEOs looking at London and wondering if a little geographic diversification in their companies wouldn't be a bad thing in any case in the light of all these recent ludicrous referenda / elections.

I bolded Ukraine, but it's definitely hard to see in quotes/italics.
