Negotiations between the UK and EU recommenced on Thursday less than one week after Prime Minister Boris Johnson announced<\/a> talks had been a failure and told the nation to prepare for a no-deal, clean-break Brexit.<\/p>\n

On Friday, the prime minister\u2019s office had gone as far as telling Brussels\u2019 chief negotiator Michel Barnier not to bother<\/a> coming to London this week to continue trade talks, after Johnson\u2019s deadline of October 15th came and went without significant progress towards signing a free trade agreement. The UK said that negotiations could only recommence if there was a substantial change to Brussels\u2019 position.<\/p>\n

For months, the EU has expected the UK to be the only partner in talks to compromise, with the bloc insisting on continued access to Britain\u2019s fishing waters and agreement to anti-competition rules.<\/p>\n

There appeared to be movement on the EU\u2019s side, however, when Mr Barnier told<\/a> the European Parliament on Wednesday:\u00a0\u201cWe will seek the necessary compromises on both sides. In order to do our utmost to reach an agreement, we will do so right up until the last day that it\u2019s possible to do so.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe want a deal that will be mutually beneficial to both parties in respect of the autonomy and sovereignty of both sides. A deal reflecting a balanced compromise.<\/p>\n

\u201cAn agreement is within reach.\u201d<\/p>\n

The UK\u2019s negotiator Lord David Frost said in response that \u201ca basis for negotiations with the EU and Michel Barnier has been re-established\u201d.<\/p>\n
