Full question wording

Parliament voted yesterday to try to re-open negotiations with the EU on the terms of the UK’s withdrawal agreement with the EU, and particularly the “Northern Ireland Backstop” - the agreed plan to ensure there will never be a “hard border” for goods between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. The EU has since said that the current arrangement which ensures there will never be a “hard border” for goods between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland cannot be renegotiated. How likely do you think it is that the UK government will be able to agree a different, legally binding deal with the EU on this issue?
