Boris Johnson's senior allies now believe the only person who can put a stop to Brexit is the Prime Minister himself.
The EU is refusing to re-open negotiations on the deal the bloc's 27 leaders signed past year with May. Since day one we have been pressing Government for clarity as regards future border crossing procedures and we have conveyed our concerns about the future to Monsieur Puissesseau on many occasions.
Johnson is seeking a deal with the European Union but has not ruled out suspending parliament to prevent lawmakers' attempts to block a no-deal exit. We are also making very detailed preparations at home to ensure the United Kingdom is ready to leave the European Union in all circumstances on 31 October.
He made it clear that the United States government "fully understands" that Brexit is the UK's first priority, and said issues like Iran, China, and the involvement of the Chinese telecoms firm Huawei in building the UK's 5G mobile infrastructure could be put off until after the UK leaves the EU.
