Can ALL marriages be saved Vol. 2

You have done very well Gmum. It might be your alcohol that he wrongly consumed without asking that caused the anger, but that's irrelevant, you got a good point(s) across.

Now you've declared your boundary, stick with it. If nothing happens in a day or so, ask him when he going to move his stuff and keep doing it at regular intervals until he does. Following through is most important, especially with some of the passive aggressive behavior he's demonstrating. Don't let it become an overly contentious point , polite and firm reminders that state you do expect him to comply will get a result eventually.

If he argues too much, it gives a hint that he's re-thinking his position in the R, but this is not something to wish for, or cling to, nor affect how you behave for the near future. Your continued steps towards detachment are critical.
