Boris Johnson wants to fix Britain’s “defective” Brexit withdrawal deal – paving the way for a furious showdown with Brussels.
A source close to UK chief negotiator David Frost said January’s agreement had unfair defects the Government did not have time to fix. In a blistering attack, EU talks boss Michel Barnier was accused of “thinking he is the referee when actually he is a player on the pitch”. The bitter fallout follows the end of the fourth round of trade talks last week.
They saw recriminations from Mr Barnier as Britain refused to bend to Brussels’ demands.
Meanwhile, a US poll showed American voters backed a trade deal with the UK.
The Democracy Institute survey shows that 55 per cent believe a UK trade deal is good for the US and 58 per cent think Britain is America’s best ally.
Mr Johnson had 51 per cent approval with a 30 per cent unfavourable rating, while 43 per cent say Brexit is good for the UK and 33 per cent believe it is bad.
