Brexit Secretary Stephen Barclay says the UK and the EU share a 'common purpose' in reaching a new Brexit deal following his meeting with EU negotiator Michel Barnier
Brexit minister Stephen Barclay said there was a"shared sense of purpose" to reach an agreement and avoid Britain crashing out of the bloc without a divorce deal after talks in Brussels with EU chief negotiator Michel Barnier.
After talks in Brussels with EU chief negotiator Michel Barnier, Brexit Minister Stephen Barclay said there was a "shared sense of purpose" to reach an agreement and avoid Britain crashing out of the bloc without a divorce deal. And there was further pessimism from Dublin, with Irish Foreign Minister Simon Coveney telling BBC radio that while the "mood music" around talks had improved, a deal was still "not close" and British proposals so far were inadequate.
"It is essential that there is a fully workable and legally operational solution included in the withdrawal agreement," the commission said.
