'A last-minute upset over the Irish border left all parties embarrassed and doesn’t bode well for a second run at a breakthrough. '
'The debate over Northern Ireland also threatens to generate more tension in the already fractious union. '
'For the DUP, any proposal that would apply to Northern Ireland and not the rest of the U.K. was unacceptable. '
'But it’s not just the Irish border standing in the way of a deal, according to another person familiar with the situation. '
'Dublin had signed up to the agreement and was happy with it -- any change now to placate May’s Northern Irish allies will look like a concession from Dublin. '
