Boris Johnson is planning to talk directly to German Chancellor Angela Merkel as he seeks a breakthrough in Brexit trade negotiations with the European Union before a crucial summit this week.

The British prime minister has set a deadline of Oct. 15 for a deal to be struck -- or to be within reach -- on future trading terms with the EU, and he’s stepping up his own involvement in the process in an effort to unblock negotiations.

On Saturday, Johnson spoke to French President Emmanuel Macron and he is also preparing for a possible call with Merkel, according to a person familiar with the matter.

Get with the script mate.

Johnson has already capitulated over his deadline. 

Boris sticks it to them but Macron needs more time. Another delay to our No Deal Brexit.

 You should read the text; not just the headline.

 

Nothing substantial in the text of either article to suggest that Johnson wants no deal; the opposite, in fact!

Firms move €150bn of UK assets to France ahead of Brexit 
Banque de France says 31 entities – mainly investment firms – have applied for licences in France, moving €150bn of assets since September

At least €150bn of assets have been decamped from the City to France ahead of Brexit, according to the governor of the Banque de France.As trade talks with Brussels enter a critical week, ahead of a highly anticipated meeting of European leaders on Thursday and Friday, François Villeroy de Galhau told the Europlace International Financial Forum that since September, the bank had authorised 21 investment firms, four credit institutions and seven third-country branches to “ensure continuity of activities in France”.

In addition, 31 entities – mainly investment firms – had applied for a licence in France, he said.Encouraging more firms to follow their lead, Mr de Galhau said: “Even if there is a trade deal, which I still wish and hope, Britain will have left the single market and things will change anyway significantly for financial services.

“It means that firms operating under the European passport must quickly finalise their relocation to the EU if they want to operate here as of next year.”

France threatens no-deal Brexit over fishing rights

Diplomats across Europe are gearing up for the week from hell – as the Brexit rhetoric gets ramped ahead of the EU Council summit starting on 15 October.  Boris Johnson told French president Emmanuel Macron over the weekend that the UK wants to “explore every avenue” to secure a trade deal. Which suggests the PM’s self-imposed, mid-October deadline will come and go without too much fuss. 

But France appears to be playing hard ball over fishing rights. Annick Girardin, the country’s fishing minister, talked up a no-deal outcome – sounding every inch the Brexiteer: “Fishermen would rather have no agreement than a bad agreement,” she said. 

“We have laid out red lines: access to fishing grounds, quotas and the species that we fish today. Europeans must preserve their resources and their access.”

Will it be enforced or quietly dropped?

EU's utter contempt for Britain will wreck any hope of Brexit deal IAIN DUNCAN SMITH

We are nearing the end of the negotiations - the crunch point of whether we get a good deal, a bad deal or no deal at all.The government's ambition, its preferred outcome is a deal similar in structure but better than the one Canada has with the EU - often referred to as "Canada plus plus".

As I said, I don't use a crystal ball, because I don't need too, and I told you what I voted for.

Also, we will now not be in the future United States of Germany..

Trade talks, I don't care about trade talks, what happens, happens, those dealing with it will deal with it.

Not really worth exploring more of those avenues Boris. The No Deal route is opening even wider for us, thanks to the French. French fisherman logic takes some understanding: If you don't surrender access to your waters, we will force a No Deal Brexit, in which case we will not get access to your waters.............er?

Really, clearly a wild assumption..

 But a valid one, considering the number of times some Brexiteers, not you, triumphantly copy and paste the headline when they obviously haven't read the actual article.

 

A reminder that headlines are written by sub-editors, not the author of the article, and are designed to sell newspapers or generate clicks. Therefore they are often full of hyperbole bearing little relevance to the actual article.

 

To show that this happens across the board, The readers' editor on… a misleading headline on a sensitive story

Quote

Headlines and subheadings are there to attract and lead a reader into a story, but they should never mislead about what is in the text. The Guardian broke that rule in an acutely sensitive area of reporting about the investigation into the death of Mark Duggan

 

Moral; posters should never rely on the headline; always read the text before posting. That way they'll know whether or not the article says what they claim it does!

 So what, exactly, did you vote for?

 

The Brexit promised by Cummings and his Vote.Leave campaign?

 

Remember, the one he promised whereby the EU would roll over, give us everything we wanted and let us keep all the benefits of membership without any of the responsibilities!

 

Or the dire effects of a no deal Brexit which Cummings et al dismissed at the time as 'Project Fear?'
