Re: Britain outside the EU

BoJo's deal as we know was more half-baked than oven-ready. Good to see it being improved. Hope the pro-Brexit doom-mongers are happy but suspect that's an impossible ask.

Deal with EU done, Sky News understands

A landmark reset deal with the European Union has now been finalised, Sky News understands.

Talks are understood to have continued into the early hours of the morning, with Business Secretary Jonathan Reynolds telling Sky News an hour ago it wasn't yet complete.

But we now understand that the deal has now been approved by the EU ambassadors' committee.

The finer details of the agreement will come later, but we are hearing that the UK has made some moves on fishing in order to secure a deal to ease checks on veterinary goods.

We understand that the government has allowed EU access to UK fish for 12 years.

This comes with no reduction in the British fishing quota, or increase in the quota the EU is allowed to catch, Sky News understands.

The European Union wanted permanent access to fishing in British waters, a source has said, and the UK was unwilling to accept this.

And in a potential win for the UK, the EU has agreed to delay a final plan on youth mobility and keep talking on a possible youth mobility scheme, rather than make concrete agreements.

One source told our political editor Beth Rigby: "All in all, it's a good deal for all".

And good news for NI
