Until the deal is signed off nothing is set in stone.
I think he'd have to withdraw the letter invoking article 50 and start again though, I think.

So the known Irish sympathiser, who folk love to call IRA Jez, would rip up the Good Friday Agreement and reintroduce a hard border, despite him likely wanting no border at all and a United Ireland?

A country leaving the EU is unprecedented, so I doubt anything can be "set in stone". Any "deal" being negotiated right now is (theoretically) a mutually beneficial agreement. I would say that the UK could walk away from any such deal at any time, but obviously that would cause an almighty shitstorm.

Yep, I really doubt Corbyn is going to enforce a hard border on Ireland
Just fucking call it off Some daft cunts in England will be upset, but they never vote in general or council elections anyway. Worse case, it splits the Tories even further with the more radgies moving to UKIP.
Spastics that didn't have a clue what they were voting for, but wanted to "give the establishment a bloody nose!"
Arsehole politicians who ran awful, negative campaigns (on both sides). The Remain side was criminal, not one mention i their campaign of all that is good in the EU
Bit of a tangent but what is the significance of the PM meeting EU representatives for a “working lunch�
Keep hearing this in regards to her flying over to meet with the head honchos. Why is it not just referred to as a meeting Don't need to know that she'll be having a wee sausage roll at some point during their meetings.

We can. We can reverse our decision to invoke Article 50 at any point between now and 29 March 2019. Corbyn, according to reports, has finally woken up in recent weeks to just what a catastrophe Brexit represents for his own socialist agenda - and the approach of the Labour frontbench to all this is wildly different in tone and attitude.

Some dilemma for me if he promised to do this if May's government falls.
