Well if, as now seems increasingly likely, we get an EU deal, there will be no problem for Biden in approving a US/UK deal. The border would no longer be an issue.

The EU is the next US President's focus, not the smaller UK. Hopefully, BoJo will get to meet Biden as they probably agree on more policies than BoJo and Trump did, despite Trump labelling BoJo as the "British Trump".

Don't know if this legislation being sent back by the House of Lords means this court case can end?
Quote:
Boris Johnson is facing further legal action from the EU after he missed a deadline to explain why he is planning to break international law over Northern Ireland.
At the start of October the European Commission sent a letter of formal notice to the UK over the prime minister’s planned Internal Market Bill, which breaches the Brexit agreement signed earlier this year.
The European Commission confirmed on Tuesday that the deadline to respond to the letter has now come and gone without a UK response, meaning the court action against the UK will move to the next phase.

Re: Brexit-Transitional Period Ends 31/12/20
Mixed news today.
Quote:
Robert “Woody” Johnson, the US ambassador to the UK, has claimed that a post-Brexit transatlantic deal will happen regardless of whether Donald Trump or Joe Biden wins the presidency. “I’m confident our countries can get this done no matter what happens today.”...
Elsewhere, Brexit trade negotiators Michel Barnier and David Frost are reportedly yet to reach any agreement on three big areas – fisheries, level playing field issues and a mechanism for settling disputes. EU sources said the two sides remain “stuck” over fishing quota.

You’ve just contradicted your own optimism there, OB.

Re: Brexit-Transitional Period Ends 31/12/20
It’ll be interesting to see the battle for power in a Biden White House. Unfortunately, I’m inclined to agree with Mick that there’s something in his decline, and it’s really sad that the Democrats literally had no alternative.
I think some videos are clearly exaggerated or twisted. And if you put a camera on someone so many hours a day on the road they’ll have moments. But it’s not all down to that.

Re: Brexit-Transitional Period Ends 31/12/20
As if the US election results weren't gripping enough, more news on Brexit promised tomorrow! 
Quote:
Boris Johnson will speak to Ursula von der Leyen, president of the European Commission, on Saturday in an effort to help break the impasse in the talks on a post-Brexit trade deal.
Serious differences remain between the UK and the EU on two key policy areas: fishing access rights and a “level playing field” for fair business competition. The talks are currently stuck on the issue of “non-regression” and whether future UK standards should evolve to stay in line with Brussels as part of any trade pact — something British negotiators have so far resisted.
