The only reason to come to an agreement of some sort would be to not damage their own interests with trade and other relationships they have with us, but they are making it clear that they don't care about that......at the moment, very hardball but that wont last.
It will be interesting to see what happens as the year draws to a close. There will be much to be done in Q1 2019.
Both sides will feel the pressure and more than ever we need the Govt to hold their nerve. Because as No Deal looms some in the EU will start to sweat a bit, and that's when deals will be done.
