David Davis is the victor of the hour, it seems, writes BBC political editor Laura Kuenssberg.
The Brexit secretary threatened to quit the government if the prime minister refused to change her proposal to fix the customs conundrum - after he demanded a time limit on the "backstop", the insurance policy for avoiding a hard Irish border if trade talks break down.
There is a date in the document that is now on its way to Brussels.

From start to now its been a shambles. May managing to just about react to all the problems and kick them down the road at each turn. When will all the issues that have stickey plasters covering them up fall apart?
I don't think that Davies is the victor in this. He's signed up to a meaningless fudge that will be rejected by the EU.
The government signed up to agreeing an unlimited backstop in December and they will end up doing that again.
I don't know what the Brexiters are worried about, if they are so confident in their technical solution, the backstop won't be needed.
