I think the EU believed May when she told them she could get it through Parliament hence the jitters now that they see she probably can't. Varadkar has been talking the Germans hoping for massive aid if we actually leave the single market and customs union. If he gets anything, it won't be for long especially as we won't be contributing anymore.

The UK doesn't want a hard border, it isn't necessary considering the piffling amount crossing the Irish border. The EU has said they won't implement a hard border either so why the back-stop? It's political and the Irish Government and the EU both want it. It will mean they have the whip-hand in any subsequent trade deal negotiations.

Yes,at which a hard border should have been "threatened" in Sept, negotiations are just that say anything thing really and if the other side is dopey enough to agree job done. The "complete pants" down though gives rise to cynical thinking indeed.
