Brexit: Boris Johnson and Leo Varadkar set for further talks

Downing Street said the meeting was to allow “detailed discussions” on the process of securing a deal, reports BBC.On Wednesday EU leaders accused the UK of putting forward untested ideas, adding that progress towards a new deal had been limited.

A similar sentiment was expressed on Tuesday by Mr Varadkar, who suggested it would be “very difficult” for the UK and the EU to reach a Brexit agreement before the 31 October deadline.

The meeting between the two leaders will take place in the north-west of England, with Mr Johnson still insisting the UK will leave the EU with or without a deal at the end of the month.
