Instead, it just feels like it's petering out. It's been kicked up to the negotiating teams with an extended deadline and no momentum. As if they all know it's over but just can't bring themselves to dramatically say it, maybe hoping the other side declares it over first.

The UK government now needs to move swiftly to ensure the retention of its car plants or it will be facing some unsavoury headlines.
